Moldoveanu Makes a Big Fold
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ionut Dragomir opened to 12,000 from the cutoff and Marius Moldoveanu three-bet to 65,000 from the button. Moldoveanu then four-bet to 185,000, sending Moldoveanu deep into the tank.
After roughly two minutes Moldoveanu folded A♦Q♠ face up. Dragomir flashed the K♠K♦ in his hand as he dragged in a nice pot without having to see a flop.
Despite the minor setback Moldoveanu has been building a monster stack over the last few levels and currently leads the field.
Elsewhere in the tournament area, Anton Rodriguez was recently eliminated.
