Gheorghe Is Deprived of a Double Up
Nível 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Kamal Jbirane raised to 22,000 from early positon, Martin Nielsen moved all in for 173,000, from the cutoff, and Butuc Gheorghe, on the button, called off the bet for his effective stack of 29,000.
The action was back on Jbirane, who went deep into the tank and thought for several minutes. The clock being called prompted Jbirane to fold.
Butuc Gheorghe: A♥10♣ 
Martin Nielsen: A♦9♦
Gheorghe had Nielsen dominated, but the 5♠5♦Q♠ flop brought some chop opportunities. The 7♠ turn changed nothing, but the 5♣ river saw each player's kicker negated, denying Gheorghe his double-up.
