Amsellem Snaps Off Eljach
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jacob Amsellem raised to 20,000 in early position before Omar Eljach three-bet to 105,000 in the small blind. Amsellem then four-bet to 250,000, Eljach moved all in, and Amsellem snap-called for 689,000.
Jacob Amsellem: A?K?
Omar Eljach: A?2?
Eljach was caught making a move and was dominated by Amsellem heading to the 10?4?J? flop.
"Five," Eljach pleaded as the 7? fell on the turn. "Deuce," he called for going to the river, but the dealer flipped over the 5? and Amsellem earned the massive double up and put a significant dent in Eljach's hopes of making a run at a repeat title.
