Groenendijk Busts Rona
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Gergely Rona opened to 40,000 from middle position and action was folded to Julien Groenendijk in the big blind, who moved all in, putting Rona at risk if he made the call. After some thought, Rona put the rest of his chips in the middle, around 100,000 in total.
Gergely Rona: 8?8?
Julien Groenendijk: A?Q?
Rona was ahead with a pair of eights in a race, but the A?K?2? flop left him drawing thin.
The K? turn reignited some hope, with Rona now holding a flush draw, but the 4? river was a brick and sent him to the rail just before the conclusion of Day 1b.
