Kevin Iacofano Soft Bubbles
Magnus Hansen has made sure Kevin Iacofano won't be back to the final this year. The American came into today as one of the big stacks, suffered early on, and was on the way to recovery before he ran into a monster hand that belonged to Magnus Hansen.
The two had made it to the river with 40,000 in the middle. The board read and Hansen led for 23,200 from big blind. Iacofano raised to 55,000 from under-the-gun, with a little less sat behind. Hansen put his opponent to test for the rest as he shoved. Last year's fourth place finisher thought for a few minutes and made the call all in.
"I have the nuts," said Hansen and tabled for quads. Iacofano mucked and quietly left.
We are now on the bubble and hand-for-hand play is in progress at the PokerStars EPT Copenhagen Main Event until we lose at least more.
