Forman-Todd Loves Broadway

Eugene Portlen Eliminated
Eugene Portlen Eliminated
Steve Forman-Todd opened to 2,400 from middle position and found one caller in Eugene Portlen out of the big blind.

Both players checked the flop of {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}, and when the {J-Clubs} landed on the turn Portlen led for 5,000. With the action on Forman-Todd, he moved all-in, putting Portlen to a decision for his tournament life. Tanking for some time, Portlen eventually made the call, tabling {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} only to find he was behind Forman-Todd's turned Broadway straight with {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}.

The river brought the {J-Spades}, and Portlen headed to the rail as Forman-Todd became the new tournament chip leader with 55,000.
