Nemeth Leaves Ju Short on Bubble
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action was folded to Samuel Ju in the small blind, who raised to 35,000. Andras Nemeth called in the big blind.
On the K♣5♣9♠ flop, Ju continued with a bet of 25,000 and Nemeth called.
The 5♥ rolled off on the turn to pair the board, and Ju checked. Nemeth put out a bet of 65,000 and Ju called.
The Q♥ river completed the board and Ju checked once more. Nemeth wasn't prepared to slow down, and slid out a bet of 225,000, the vast majority of Ju's remaining stack.
After a great deal of thought, and burning through two time banks, Ju flicked in a calling chip, only to be shown the bad news when Nemeth turned over 5♠4♠ for the turned trip fives. Ju mucked his hand and Nemeth raked in a big pot.
