Gyorffy's Ace on the River Eliminates Peters
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action kicked off when Tobias Peters raised to 80,000 from middle position. Sitting right beside him, Bob Bielen responded with a three-bet to 210,000. In the big blind, Sandor Gyorffy deliberated for a full two minutes before deciding to call. The pressure shifted back to Peters, who shoved all-in for 1,060,000. Bielen quickly folded, but Gyorffy, after some thought, called.
"You’ve got jacks, right?" Peters asked, but he was mistaken.
Gyorffy revealed A?K?, while Peters showed Q?Q?.
Peters looked poised to double up as the flop and turn came 8?6?5?10?, but the river dashed his hopes with the A?, sealing his fate and knocking him out of the tournament.
As the players stood to take a break, Bielen remarked, "I had jacks."
