The Defending Champ Busts
Elfad Mammadov opened for 1,800 and was raised by the active Nikov Dobromir Georgiev to 5,200. Sitting in the small blind was former EPT Prague champion Ramzi Jelassi, who had folded to a river bet a few hands before to leave him with a stack of 14,100, and he now moved it all in.
Mammadov took about three minutes to make his decision. He had both stacks covered and perhaps thought Georgiev was at it, but he eventually folded. Georgiev made the call with his and was racing the of Jelassi. The flop was dealt and it was all looking pretty rosy for Jelassi, but the turn shot Georgiev into the lead. No salvation on the river as the sealed his fate and there was to be no repeat victory for the Swedish PokerStars player.
Mammadov, who had taken a long time to fold, was asked what he folded? he responded, claiming he was getting the right price. A few other players at the table were not happy about the time he took, one pointing out that there were no TV cameras on him.
