Ace from Space for Hardcastle
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action was picked up midway through a series of bets preflop. Igor Dursel had opened, Jack Hardcastle had three-bet to 32,000 and Norbert Szecsi had four-bet to 85,000. Hardcastle five-bet all in for about 240,000 and Szecsi quickly called with a covering stack.
Jack Hardcastle: A?5?
Norbert Szecsi, Q?Q?
Hardcastle was in bad shape against Szecsi's queens and still needed some help after the 2?6?7? flop. He got exactly what he needed when the A? spiked on the turn and stayed ahead on the 10? river, scooping a massive pot in the process while Szecsi was left short-stacked with the bubble approaching.
Meanwhile at another table, Vanessa Selbst has been eliminated from the tournament.
