Matt Warburton

Level 27 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Action was on the river on a board of 5?3?K?7?2?. Timur Margolin moved nearly all in, keeping just 5,000 behind. Razvan Belea made the call and players turned their cards.

Margolin showed A?3? for a pair of threes that he had turned into a bluff. Belea had 7?7? for a set of sevens and picked off the bluff to win the pot.

Margolin did manage to bring his stack back up to 65,000 chips the next hand, winning a pot to scoop the antes and double his 5,000.

A couple of hands later, Margolin raised to 50,000 from late position, leaving 15,000 behind. Belea reraised to 150,000, Sven Stok called in the big blind, and Margolin threw his last chips in the middle.

The flop came 9?6?A?. Stok checked and Belea bet 60,000, which Stok called. The turn came the 6?. Stok checked again and Belea fired out 200,000. Stok once again called. The river was the 5? and both players checked to showdown.

Belea showed A?9? for two pair, Stok showed Q?10? for a flush and Margolin showed A?7? for a pair of aces. Stok won the pot and Margolin was eliminated from the tournament in 23rd place for €11,740.
