Gavrila Smacks the Flop to Bust Tardea
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Cristian Tardea was all in for 140,000 from the hijack and up against Viorel Gavrila in the cutoff.
Cristian Tardea: K♥K♣
Viorel Gavrila: J♥J♦
The flop came 9♣4♠J♠, giving Gavrila a set and the lead. Unlike Bogdan Trifanescu at the other table, there would be no miracles for Tardea as the board ran out A♣5♣ and he hit the rail.
A few hands earlier at this table, 888poker Stream Team member Ricardo Freire Mateus lost most of his stack with queens against the two aces of Valentin Cristea.
