Oezkacar's Hopes Dashed as Potenza Claims Victory

Level 24 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Yusuf Oezkacar first attempted to double up with his remaining 105,000 chips, but he found himself in a tough spot against Irakli Kajaia. Both players held a straight on the board showing JK1059, resulting in a split pot that did little to improve Oezkacar's situation.

In the very next hand, Dominique Potenza took the lead by raising to 60,000. Oezkacar, now in the big blind, saw his chance and shoved all in, prompting an immediate call from Potenza.

As the flop revealed 9910, Oezkacar gained significant hope, as he now had a straight draw and needed just one card to complete it for a potential double-up. The turn brought the K, further expanding his outs and giving him additional chances to win the hand and stay in the tournament.

However, when the river revealed the 5, it dashed Oezkacar's hopes, sealing his fate and sending him to the rail. With this elimination, Potenza solidified his position at the table while Oezkacar's tournament run came to an unfortunate end.
