Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 9th Place - Zambanini ($10,399)

Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 8

Matthew Zambanini (Wilmington, DE)
9th Place - $10,399

The action would fold around to Aditya Prasetyo on the button, and he would open the pot for a 80,000 raise.  Matthew Zambanini was next to act in the small blind and would three-bet shove his remaining stack.  Dilip Ravindran would fold the big blind, and after asking for a count (580,000 total), Prasetyo announced a call:

Aditya: K♠ Q        Matthew: K 10

Flop: A 9♠ J♣

Turn: 8

River: J♠

The flop would bring no extra outs for Zambanini, but he would turn the flush draw for a sweat going into the river.  The board pairing on the river would not help, and Matthew would be the first player to leave Day 3.  Aditya would add Matthew's chips to his stack, and he is now the chip leader with just under 4,000,000.
