Chmielewski Claims One

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Marcin Chmielewski

Marcin Chmielewski raised to 26,000 from mid-position and the player in the hijack shoved. Action folded back to Chmielewski who asked for a count. The dealer and the player both confirmed he had 49,000 behind and Chmielewski called.

Hijack: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Marcin Chmielewski: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The flop came {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for them both to hit a pair with Chmielewski's opponent jumping into the lead.

The turn was the {a-Spades} to now provide Chmielewski with two pair.

Only another king could save his opponent's tournament life, but the {4-Hearts} river bricked the board to send the chips to Chmielewski's stack.
