Jalba's Bluffs Livshitz; El Berrak Stays Alive
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Gabi Livshitz opened to 160,000 from under the gun and was called by Euseibiu Jalba from the button. Mohamed El Berrak moved all-in for 145,000 from the small blind before the big blind folded.
Livshitz check-called for 80,000 and 150,000 on the flop and turn for the final board to read K♥6♥2♣2♥10♣. Livshitz checked for a third time and Jalba went deep into the tank. Remy Murcia called the clock and as the countdown began, Jalba bet 945,000, leaving himself 100,000 behind. Livshitz then used some thinking time of his own, and appeared to make a reluctant fold.
Jalba took the side after folding out Livshitz but could not beat El Barrak. Jalba had ace-high with A♦J♥ but El Berrak, with A♥6♠, had a pair of sixes to claim the main pot.
