Sitbon, Miadzel Take Turns Doubling Off Trumpulis
Julien Sitbon raised to 190,000 in middle position, leaving just one orange 5,000 chip behind, and Tadas Trumpulis called in the hijack.
The flop came 8♠10♣8♣ and Sitbon checked, then tossed in his last chip when Trumpulis moved all in.
Julien Sitbon: K♣10♦
Tadas Trumpulis: A♦8♦
Sitbon had flopped two pair, but Trumpulis had trips and Sitbon got out of his seat prepared to make his exit. The board ran out 6♣Q♣ and Sitbon made a running flush to win the pot and double up.
"It's a small pot," he reassured Trumpulis.
"Every pot is like 1,000, 2,000 euros," Trumpulis replied.
"Everyone is happy except you," Sitbon added.
The next hand, Stanislaw Miadzel moved all in for 400,000 and Trumpulis took another shot at knocking out a player.
Stanislaw Miadzel: Q♥Q♣
Tadas Trumpulis: 7♦7♠
Miadzel was ahead with queens and Trumpulis couldn't find any help on the K♣2♣10♥9♦6♠ board to double up another opponent.
