Epstein's Tens Send Josset to the Rail
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jonathan Epstein opened to 14,000 preflop and was then three-bet to 36,000 by Gabriel Josset. Epstein just called and the twp went heads-up to a flop of J?8?2?.
Epstein checked to Josset, who continued for 25,000, but then Epstein fired back with 100,000, which was enough to cover Josset who then went into the tank.
"Alright, I call," Josset announced after nearly a minute and pushed his stack forward to put his tournament life at risk.
Gabriel Josset: A?K?
Jonathan Epstein: 10?10?
Epstein was in the lead with his tens, and the runout of 8?5? kept it that way to score him the big pot while Josset made his way to the exit.
