Window Card Gives Kaufmann a Brief Glimmer of Hope
Ermo Kosk raised to 450,000 in middle position and David Kaufmann reraised to 2,100,000 in the big blind, leaving himself around 200,000 behind. Kosk then moved all in and Kaufmann spent a few moments looking at the tournament clock before calling.
David Kaufmann: A♥J♠
Ermo Kosk: 10♠10♦
Kaufmann was racing for his tournament life and saw the J♦ fall in the window to give him a pair, followed by the J♥. But they were accompanied by the 10♥ as Kosk spiked a full house.
"I liked the window card, at least," Kaufmann said as the board ran out 2♠3♠ to send him to the rail.
"Now I hope nobody busts in the next 30 seconds," Kaufmann said as he just missed a pay jump.
"I'm using all my time banks, that's for sure," tablemate Chris Moneymaker added.
"I haven't used one. I'm saving them for the next one," Matt Glantz said.
