Rotariu Busts After Flip

Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Jonathan Pastore opened to 50,000 from the cutoff and called when George Rotariu jammed for 160,000 from the button.
George Rotariu: 7?7?
Jonathan Pastore: A?8?
Pastore paired up on the 8?6?4? flop and then began rooting for his opponent's outs, as the duo had been very friendly with each other throughout the tournament.
Despite the additional encouragement, Rotariu found no help on the 3? turn or 3? river and was eliminated.
