Wojtkowiak Falls Victim to Cruel Cooler

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Justus Held and Michal Wojtkowiak went heads-up to a flop of {10-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds} when Wojtkowiak, in the hijack, got his last 97,000 in the middle and was up against Held in middle position.

Michal Wojtkowiak: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Justus Held: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}

Wojtkowiak had flopped top set, but Held had flopped the nut straight. Needing to fill up to stay alive, Wojtkowiak saw the {7-Diamonds} fall on the turn, then the {8-Diamonds} on the river as he was sent to the rail in cruel fashion.

Day 1 chip leader Roman Gadzhiev is also at this table but has seen his stack fall to around 300,000.
