Colossus Winner Hops in High Roller; Bryn Kenney Joins The Field
Level 5
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Recent $400 Colossus Winner, Moshe Refaelowitz, raised to 8,000 under the gun and was only called by last years Main Event winner, Espen Jørstad, in the big blind.
The dealer fanned out the 8♠6♦3♣ and both players checked, turning the 2♥.
Jørstad checked again and Refaelowitz threw out a bet of 19,000 when the dealer informed him his time was almost up. Jørstad made the call.
The river peeled the 9♠ and both players checked, with Jørstad announcing he had a pair of eights, as he turned over 10♦8♦, prompting Refaelowitz to throw his hand in the muck.
Bryn Kenney was getting seated at this table just as this hand came to a conclusion.
