Greenwood Misses the Final Table

Nível 11 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Leon Sturm opened for 12,000 from the cutoff before Sam Greenwood jammed all in from the button for 58,000 chips. The action folded to Juan Pardo in the big blind, who asked for a count before going all in himself, covering both opponents.

Sturm quickly folded and the other two players showed down.

Sam Greenwood: 4♥4♣
Juan Pardo: 7♠7♣

The flop came down J♦9♠9♦.

"Chop it up," Greenwood joked, and the 9♣ turn made that possibility a little bit likelier. However, the 6♦ river saw Pardo remain with the better full house and Greenwood picked up his stuff while the eight remaining players went to the final table.
