Atanasov Busts Another on the River

Level 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Stefan Atanasov
Stefan Atanasov

Stefan Atanasov has busted his second player through the first two levels of Day 1a, and this time his unfortunate victim was Michel Habib.

Atanasov three-bet to 5,000 from the hijack and both Habib and Joseph Mouwad called. The flop came {6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Atanasov continued for 7,500.

Mouwad folded, but Habib immediately moved all in for 62,000. Atanasov tanked for about 30 seconds before throwing in a chip to call.

Michel Habib: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Stefan Atanasov: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Habib had flopped top set, while Atanasov had an overpair and straight draw. The {4-Spades} on the turn was no help, but the {9-Clubs} on the river completed Atanasov's straight and sent Habib to the rail.
