Texieira Eliminated as Abuladze Gets Birthday Gift
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Georgi Abuladze raised from late position and Diogo Teixeira moved all in from the big blind for 39,000 chips. Abuladze called.
The two players exchanged words of banter as they waited for the hand to be dealt. When the other tables had finished, players flipped their cards, with Teixeira at risk.
Diogo Teixeira: J?7?
Georgi Abuladze: A?K?
The flop ran out 9?5?10?9?3?. Teixeira shouted out for his cards, but they never came. Abuladze held up with his ace high.
"It is my birthday, it was always meant to be this way," said Abuladze.
The tournament is now on the true bubble, with one more player to be knocked out before Day 1b ends.
