Emil Climbs Over 1,400,000 Chips
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Both players were staring at a board of 4♠7♦5♦8♣K♠ with roughly 150,000 already in the pot. Emil Mattsson in the big blind put Lyudmil Ivanov to the test for his tournament life on the river. Lyudmil, in the early position, tanked for approximately 90 seconds before he called the remainder of his 130,000 stack.
Ivanov tabled A♠A♣ but Mattsson tabled 4♥4♣ for bottom set and scooped this huge pot which propelled his chip count to 1,450,000. .
