Level 17
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Drazen Ilich raised to 8,500 from under the gun and Eddie Blumenthal raised it up to 18,500 from middle position. Ilich made the call when all other players let go of their hand, and the dealer laid out 
for a flop. Ilich announced all in and Blumenthal made the call.
Blumenthal: 
Ilich: 
Ilich was ahead, but there were plenty of cards in the deck that would let Blumenthal catch up. The turn was the 
and the river 
secured Ilich's double-up. Blumenthal has been left really short and is looking to double up soon.
