Madan Gets There for the Double Elimination
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Jason Ephraim raised 320,000 under the gun and Mayank Madan three-bet all-in for 1,580,000. Erik Ortiz was in the small blind and called off his 940,000, and Ephraim tank-called off his 1,400,000.
Jason Ephraim: J♣J♠
Erik Ortiz: K♦K♥
Mayank Madan: A♦9♦
Ortiz was in great shape to triple up but the A♥Q♥10♦ flop gave Madan a pair of aces to take the lead. The A♠ hit the turn, improving him to trip aces and the 7♣ completed the board on the river, sending both Ephraim and Ortiz to the payout desk.
