Gledovic Gets Lucky to Survive Huber

Chad Holloway

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Bojan Gledovic moved all in for 1.625 million from early position and Michael Huber isolated by three-bet jamming all in over the top for 2.85 million. The rest of the players folded and the hands were turned up.

Bojan Gledovic: A♣7♥
Michael Huber: A♥Q♠

Gledovic had the inferior kicker but the 2♥7♦A♦ flop delivered him salvation with two pair. Neither the 3♦ turn nor 6♥ river changed anything and Gledovic got lucky to double.

Moshe Refaelowitz Eliminated in 22nd Place ($90,000)

Chris Land

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Action folded to the player on the button who raised to 400,000 only to see Gabriel Schroeder in the small blind come in for a three-bet to 1,600,000. Moshe Refaelowitz was in the big blind and after a brief moment, he announced all-in for not much more.

The button got out of the way and Schroeder made the snap-call to set up a runout with Refaelowitz at risk.

Moshe Refaelowitz: 9♦9♥
Gabriel Schroeder: A♣A♠

Refaelowitz would need a lot of help to survive the all-in and extend his Main Event run and when the 9♣ appeared as the door card, it looked like that help had come but the relief was short-lived as the 8♣A♥ appeared behind the nine for set over set on the flop.

Refaelowitz would now need the last nine in the deck to survive but when the turn and river came the 2♥ and J♥, his fate was seal as he exited the tournament area in 22nd place for $90,000.

Mikita Badziakouski: K♣Q♦

Brandon Bloom

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Pedro Garagnani raised to 450,000 in the cutoff and Daniel Neilson three-bet to 1,550,000 in the small blind.

Action folded back to Garagnani who thought about his decision and four-bet jammed. Neilson quickly called all in for his 6,975,000.

Daniel Neilson: A♦K♣
Pedro Garagnani: J♥J♦

The 10♥7♥4♥ flop was a safe one for the Brazilian, but the K♠ hit the felt on the turn. Garagnani needed a jack or heart, but the 2♣ river bricked out and Neilson scored the huge double to hold twice the average stack.
