Golinski Wakes Up With Aces
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Thomas de Rooij opened the action from early position to 20,000, and Hang Xu moved all in from the cutoff. Action folded to Mariusz Golinski in the small blind, who also moved all in. De Rooij folded.
Hang Xu: A♥Qx
Mariusz Golinski: A♠A♦
Xu was in a tough spot but found a glimmer of hope when the J♥2♦K♦ flop gave him a gutshot straight draw. Unfortunately for Xu, the 7♠ turn and 3♥ river brought no help, and he was eliminated from the tournament.
