Eljach Spikes the River to Bust Fiorentin
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Omar Eljach opened to 2,600 first-to-act and was called by Pascal Hocquard from middle position. It was then folded to Enrico Fiorentin in the big blind, who shoved for his last 10,400. Eljach called to put Fiorentin at risk and Hocquard got out of the way.
Enrico Fiorentin: 8?8?
Omar Eljach: 10?10?
The 9?Q?8? flop vaulted Fiorentin into the lead with a set and his double up seemed imminent after the A? fell on the turn.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the 10? river provided Eljach with a winning set of tens to eliminate Fiorentin.
