Start of day chip leader Benoit Kuhn is the latest player to see his tournament life fizzle out of existence. Shortly before the hand in question he was telling the table that he’s still on tilt from a big pot he lost seven hands earlier.
In the hand in question Rob Perelman has opened to 200,000 from the lo-jack. It folded round to Benoit who shoved from the small blind for 1.585m. Attila Suzcs in the big blind tanked for some time, using one of his three remaining time banks in the process before making the call.
Rob Perelman got out of the way pretty quickly.
Benoit Kuhn: 8♥8♣
Attila Szucs: A♠A♣
The board was
Q♣3♥6♦3♣Q♥
This sent Benoit to the rail in 13th place for €7,210.
Attila’s tank was interesting here. He was clearly never folding, but what message was he trying to send to Perelman? Did he want another caller and risk the chances of his bullets holding up?
Attila Szucs: 3,815,000
