Imsirovic Eliminates Fox on Bubble

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Elio Fox defended big blind against Ali Imsirovic in the cutoff. The flop checked through and Fox bet 85,000 with {10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{j-Clubs} on the felt. Imsirovic called and the river was the {4-Diamonds}. Fox bet 175,000 and Imsirovic was in there with a very quick call.

Fox showed what looked like {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Imsirovic had the blades: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}.

The next hand, Fox shoved all in for about 115,000 and Imsirovic called in the big blind with {a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. He dominated {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} but Sam Soverel predicted a win for Fox.

"You've won too many in a row," he declared. "I think he's making a straight flush."

It was the opposite situation as Fox was flopped nearly dead on {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. The {4-Clubs} locked it up for Imsirovic, rendering the {j-Clubs} river meaningless.
