Bartha Departs With Aces Cracked
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Mario Lopez on the button and Tudor Bartha in the small blind got it all in preflop. Bartha was the shorter stack with less than 15 big blinds.
Tudor Bartha: A♥A♦
Mario Lopez: K♥Q♣
The flop came 4♦K♣5♥ and Bartha was still ahead. The turn K♠, however, changed everything, giving Lopez trips and having Bartha draw to two outs. They did not come, the river was the 8♦, and Bartha’s tournament was over.
