Level 8: 400/800 (800)
Entries: 476/809
Two players out with one stone by Martin Georgiev who celebrated loudly after winning the following massive pot.
We noticed that Alessandro Spata had his short stack of less than 15,000 in the middle and Ivan Martinez with his much bigger stack of close to 60,000 also committed after the 9♠3♠7♥ came on the flop. Georgiev tanked for a couple of minutes before he opted to join in the action to create a huge pot.
Alessandro Spata: A♦Q♣
Ivan Martinez: A♠T♠
Martin Georgiev: A♣9♣
Georgiev went from strength to strength after the 9♦ turn improved him further to trips. This had Spata drawing dead and Martinez lost some outs but still had a live flush draw.
“No spade!” shouted Georgiev.
Georgiev got his wish as instead of a spade the 5♥ river completed the board for him to eliminate both Spata and Martinez.
“Yes!” shouted Georgiev in joy before beginning to pile up his chips.
Martin Georgiev – 150,000
Ivan Martinez – 0
Alessandro Spata – 0
