Blex Second Player to Bust

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

There was already an elimination after just a few minutes and the second player to bust was Germany's Waldemar Blex. He had lost a ton of chips against Masato Yokosawa and was then involved in three-way action to the {j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{a-Spades} river. With 8,000 in the middle, Jean Mikhael bet 4,000 out of the small blind and the third player in the hand folded.

Blex had 7,600 behind on the button and tanked, then moved all-in to get called by Mikhael. He was shown the {10-Spades}{8-Clubs} for trips tens by Blex, which Mikhael had beat with the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for tens full of nines.
