Andrei Wauters just busted Raz Tal in a massive pot, and he captured the entire hand on the camera he uses for his vlog.
According to Wauters, he raised to 1,000 with 10♦7♦ and Tal made it 3,500 with QxQx. Wauters called to the Ax8x3x flop with two diamonds where both players checked.
Tal made a set on the Qx turn and bet 6,000 before Wauters raised to 16,000 with his flush draw. Tal called to the 9♦ river, where Wauters completed his flush and moved all in. Tal snap-called for 34,000, only to be shown the unfortunate news on his way to the exit.
According to Tal, he had only been in the tournament for two hands before busting. "First time in my life I've lasted two hands. That must be a record," he said.
