[user92162]

A battle of the blinds has gone horribly wrong for Amir Minagar.

After being raised to 30,000 by the small blind, Annette Obrestad, Minagar shoved for 280,000. Obrestad made a quick call with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

putting Minagar's {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

in dire straits.

Minagar's hand was unable to improve with the {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

{4-Diamonds}

{k-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

board, leaving him to hit the rail in 20th place.

Annette Obrestad is looming large at 1,716,000 in chips.
