Ladev Spikes the River to Double, Goel Heads to the Exit
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Apoorva Goel raised it up from under the gun and Markkos Ladev ripped all for 265,000 from the big blind. Goel quickly called and the cards were on their backs.
Markkos Ladev: 8♥8♦
Apoorva Goel: K♠K♦
The flop fell A♠Q♥10♠ and Goel was looking good with his pocket kings. The 10♥ on the turn changed nothing but it was the 8♣ on the river that gave Ladev a full house to double up.
Goel was left with just 70,000 chips after the hand and bowed out of the tournament just two hands later against Artur Martirosian.
