Verma Becomes Bubble Boy
Action folded around to Sam Razavi in the small blind and he moved all-in and big blind Vikram Verma made the call for his tournament life for his last 74,000 in chips.
��I only have six-high�� Razavi told Verma while they waited ��so you��re definitely in front.��
However, both players had to wait for an agonizing five minutes while a hand played out on one of the other tables. Eventually, it was time to decide Verma��s fate and the hands were turned over, with Razavi wishing Verma good luck.
Sam Razavi:
Vikram Verma:
Both players were on their feet and a sizable rail gathered around to see Verma��s fate, with the Indian player��s tournament life hanging in the balance.
Unfortunately for Verma the flop saw Razavi pair his six and take the lead, meaning the Indian player was two cards away from leaving empty-handed. Razavi was calling for the and while paint hit the turn, it was the and Verma was one step closer to an unceremonious exit.
The river completed the hand and brought Verma��s tournament to a close, to wild celebrations from the rest of the field. Razavi got up to shake his opponent��s hand and Verma headed for the exit while the Brit stacked up to 480,000.
Every remaining player is now guaranteed a PHP90,000 (~$1,787) payday and there are 87 players left in the running.
