"They Got Me Man!"
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
When leaving the tournament area we stumbled over Sinem Melin and the charity event winner here in Malta quickly recalled her unfortunate Day 2 to us. First she lost two bigger pots with pocket kings and then called with a flush draw without hitting. That left the Brit down to eight big blinds and the chips vanished with 
?
versus 
?
.
Moments later, Vincent Gabel joined and also told his story. The Belgian had flopped a set of sixes on 
?
?
and found one opponent in Sergey Sergeev with both players investing 3,200 into a pot of 7,500. On the 
turn, Sergeev bet 6,300 and Gabel just called to see an on the river.
The Russian got it in with ? for a back door straight and Gabel's slow play backfired in cruel fashion.
