Vlachos Spikes River to Eliminate Constantin on Money Bubble
There were three all-in-and-calls on the stone money bubble and the first was at Table 4 with Andre von Ins being at risk against Jean-David Bensemhoun.
Andre von Ins: 7?7x
Jean-David Bensemhoun: 10?10?
Von Ins had the inferior pair, but that mattered little as the dealer put down the flop of 6?6?7? to give him a full house. The 6? turn created the possibility of the full house being counterfeited, but the safe Q? river secured his double to save him from elimination.
At Table 1, Adrian-Remus Constantin was at risk against Lampros Vlachos and the cards were flipped.
Lampros Vlachos: Q?10?
Adrian-Remus Constantin: K?J?
The flop landed 2?K?10? to give Constantin the lead with a pair of kings, but the A? turn increased Vlachos' outs with flush and straight draws. He hit them both as the dealer put down the J? to give Constantin a no-good two pair to mark his elimination on the money bubble.
The all-in at the third table was less climactic as both players held ace-king to result in a split pot.
Constantin's elimination marked the end of Day 1c as players bagged and tagged ahead of Day 2. Stay tuned for a full recap of the day's events.
