Munteanu Calls Off Against Margolin

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Timur Margolin
Timur Margolin

With around 80,000 in the pot, Bogdan-Andrei Munteanu bet 36,000 from the button on a flop of {4-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Timur Margolin, in middle position, then shoved all in for 172,000.

Munteanu spent several minutes in the tank before he threw in a chip signifying a call, turning over {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for top pair. Margolin showed {a-Hearts}{a-Spades} and Munteanu needed help to survive.

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and Munteanu, who was barely covered, was eliminated.
