Pavlo Kolinkovskyi: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Rolle Falls Before Money Bubble

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Sami Kelopuro opened for 38,800 from the hijack and was called by Nick Petrangelo from the cutoff before Benjamin Rolle squeezed for 534,828 from the small blind.

Action folded back around to Petrangelo who called and both players hands were revealed.

Nick Petrangelo: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Benjamin Rolle: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}

Petrangelo was ahead with his made hand of queens and nothing changed after the {5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{j-Hearts} flop paired Rolle's jack.

The {a-Diamonds} turn left Rolle drawing to either a king or jack but the river fell the {5-Hearts} and ended his tournament just one from the money bubble.
