Kitai Hits Miracle Turn to Survive
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Nikita Kuznetsov opened the action to 20,000 from middle position, and on his direct left, Davidi Kitai moved all in for 141,000. Pascal Vos asked for the exact count, and after the dealer confirmed, he announced all in for approximately 350,000. Kuznetsov folded.
Davidi Kitai: J♥J♦
Pascal Vos: Q♠Q♣
Kitai needed to find a jack to stay alive, but the flop 7♦7♠9♥ offered no help. A player from another table asked for a jack, and their wish was granted as the dealer revealed the J♣ on the turn. The 7♣ on the river completed the board, securing Kitai a much-needed double-up.
