Grzegorz Gosk Fired Up to Win the €20K Last Longer (and To Double Before Break)
Grzegorz Gosk learned before the first break that he was the last remaining partypoker online qualifier remaining in the field. While this sounds cool by itself, what makes it even better is that he will bank another €20,000 on top of the prize pool.
Gosk is fired up about winning free money and how he is performing late in the Main Event.
"For sure I am excited about winning the free money in the last longer," said Gosk with a huge smile to PokerNews while piling up chips right before the break.
Perhaps another reason he was smiling is that he recently went over the 10 million chip count mark. Edzevit Zukorlic opened to 325,000 from early position before Gosk raised to 1,150,000 from late position. The blinds got out of the way and Zukorlic called.
Flop:
Zukorlic checked the flop before Gosk fired out for 900,000. Zukorlic tanked for a minute before declaring himself all in. Gosk thought for a moment before calling his remaining chip stack of nearly 4 million.
Gosk held top pair with while Zukorlic was holding the nut flush draw with . The on the turn and the on the river were of no help to Zukorlic and improved Gosk's hand to a full house.
