Gyorffy's Ace on the River Eliminates Peters
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action kicked off when Tobias Peters raised to 80,000 from middle position. Sitting right beside him, Bob Bielen responded with a three-bet to 210,000. In the big blind, Sandor Gyorffy deliberated for a full two minutes before deciding to call. The pressure shifted back to Peters, who shoved all-in for 1,060,000. Bielen quickly folded, but Gyorffy, after some thought, called.
"You’ve got jacks, right?" Peters asked, but he was mistaken.
Gyorffy revealed A♣K♦, while Peters showed Q♥Q♦.
Peters looked poised to double up as the flop and turn came 8♥6♥5♣10♠, but the river dashed his hopes with the A♠, sealing his fate and knocking him out of the tournament.
As the players stood to take a break, Bielen remarked, "I had jacks."
