Painful River for Pilhofer as Rodriguez Doubles
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Daniel De Sousa Custodio opened 30,000 in early position, and Luis Rodriguez flatted on the button before Istvan Pilhofer put in a three-bet to 95,000 from the big blind. Custodio mucked, but Rodriguez jammed for 486,000. Pilhofer called.
Luis Rodriguez: 8♣8♠
Istvan Pilhofer: Q♠Q♣
Pilhofer was in great shape as the J♠7♣4♦ flop hit the felt. The 2♦ landed on the turn, changing nothing but Pilhofer couldn't dodge the river as the 8♥ completed the board.
Pilhofer had about 79,000 remaining after the hand and was seen exiting the tournament shortly after.
