Pora Gets Richer After Eliminating Wisniewski
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Tomasz Wisniewski opened the cutoff to 12,000 and Dumitru Pora three-bet from the small blind to 40,000. Wisniewski then four-bet to 82,000, leaving himself just 2,000 behind.
"I'll wait 30 seconds before I go all in," said Pora in an attempt to help Wisniewski make a pay jump. Pora then shoved, then almost immediately the clock was called on Wisniewski and a 30-second countdown was initiated. When the countdown got to 2 seconds remaining, Wisniewski called.
Tomasz Wisniewski: A♣K♣ 
Dumitru Pora: 10♦10♣
Wisniewski couldn't find any piece on the 9♠8♣7♦2♠10♥ runout, which meant he was eliminated — without making a pay jump — as Pora improved to a set.
