Pollak Scores Another Elimination; Katz Out
Level 13
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

"Okay then," said Katz after a minutes thought, and made the call.
Benjamin Pollak:

Board: 
It was a classic flip situation for Katz with his tournament life on the line, but the flop put Pollak into the lead when he hit an ace. The turn and river were also no help for Katz, and he was the first to exit after the break.
