Savenkov Eliminates Gordon
Aleksei Savenkov raised from an early position to 13,000 and Claudio Gordon moved all in for 99,000 from the hijack. Savenkov made the call to cover Gordons stack, and the players flipped their hands.
Claudio Gordon: A?J?
Aleksei Savenkov: 8?8?
Gordon stood from the table after seeing Savenkov's hand and grabbed his bag, preparing himself to leave the tournament. His opponent said "Sit down," but Gordon said "It's my lucky thing," and remained standing to watch the runout.
The 4?8?2? flop prompted Gordon to ask for a "Three at least, to sweat," after Savenkov had flopped the set.
The Q? fell on the turn and Gordon walked away from the table saying "GG guys, good luck," after seeing he was drawing dead.
The dealer placed the 6? and Savenkov pulled the pot, getting a significant chip up.
