Stanciu Scoops a Big One, Leaves Ahuja Short, Busts a Few Hands Later
Level 22
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Ioannis Temekonidis moved all in for 245,000. Traian Stanciu called from the cutoff before Ankit Ahuja moved all in from the small blind. Stanciu made the call and Ahuja had both players covered.
Ioannis Temekonidis: J♣J♦
Traian Stanciu: Q♠Q♥
Ankit Ahuja: K♦K♥
Stanciu asked for a "mamacita on the flop" but she did not appear on the 3♣10♥8♠ flop. She did arrive on the Q♣ turn and his set became a boat on the 10♦ river.
A few hands later, Ahuja was all in for around 175,000, this time at risk to the covering stack of Josef Snejberg.
Ankit Ahuja: K♣9♣
Josef Snejberg: 5♣5♦
Ahuja took the lead on the 9♦7♦J♠ flop but the 6♦ presented outs to a straight and a flush. Snejberg found the 5♥ on the river to send Ahuja to the rail.
