Ketzer Picks the Wrong Time
Level 16
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Sam Grafton was riding a heater and it continued as the money bubble approached. Felipe Ketzer was in the cutoff and opted to get all of the chips in the middle against Grafton in the big blind.
Sam Grafton: K♠K♦
Felipe Ketzer: A♣7♣
The board ran out clean for Grafton but the stacks were very similar. It was Grafton who was at risk for 812,000 and earned the double-up, leaving Ketzer with just 16,000 chips after the hand.
On the next hand, Ketzer got the last of his chips in the middle against Artur Martirosian. Ketzer was unable to connect with the board and was left with just five-high, as he bowed out of the tournament.
