Baltateanu's Turn to Win a Flip
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
"Fantomass" raised to 3,500 from early position before Elvis Baltateanu moved all in on the button for 31,000. Frankie Chan called in the small blind, while the rest of the table got out of the way.
Elvis Baltateanu: A♦Q♠
Frankie Chan: 9♠9♥
Baltateanu took the lead on the 6♥10♦Q♣ flop with a pair of queens and held on through the 7♠ turn and J♦ river to double up.
Adrian Constantin, who was on the losing end of the last all-in race situation at this table, couldn't rebuild his stack and was eliminated shortly afterward.
