Defending Champ Eljach Doubles Up
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After several raises, Omar Eljach got all of his 132,600 chips in from the cutoff against Nikola Minkov in the big blind, who played 30,000 more.
Omar Eljach: Q?Q?
Nikola Minkov: A?K?
"El Classico," another player at the table noted. It would be Eljach's turn to win this admittedly classic flip when the aces and kings remained absent on the 8?J?4?4?3? runout. He doubled up while Minkov was left with 15 big blinds.
