Amsellem Knocks Over Kabrhel's Stack

Level 26 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel was under the gun and raised to 80,000. "Come on, four-deuce. Did you even apologize?" he joked with Ron Jeda, who ended up folding as did the rest of the table.

The next hand, Jacob Amsellem moved all in for 415,000 and banged the table so hard that Kabrhel's entire stack spilled over, knocking several chips onto the floor. Kabrhel folded as he began the process of stacking back up his chips.

Kabrhel was still rebuilding his stack as the next hand started. He spent a few minutes stacking his chips before finally looking at his cards and raising to 80,000. Amsellem called in the big blind and they saw a flop of KQ2. Kabrhel bet 55,000 and Amsellem called.

The 2 turn was checked through to the Q river, where Kabrhel took the pot with a bet of 95,000.

Jeda Pairs His Deuce, Kabrhel Gives a Jab

Jacob Amsellem made it 80,000 from middle position and Ron Jeda called in the big blind.

They saw a flop of 2J8 where both checked to the 7 turn. Jeda fired 55,000, and Amsellem called.

The J river was also checked through and Jeda showed a pair of deuces with 42, and Amsellem mucked.

"What is this?! This is a tournament, not a cash game," remarked Kabrhel.

"This is not Zynga poker! Four-deuce offsuit. Wow" Kabrhel added.
