Ruggeri Holds On to Bust Thielke
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Umberto Ruggeri and Marcos Thielke were heads-up on a flop of Q♣J♣3♥ when Ruggeri bet enough from early position to put Thielke all in. Thielke quickly called for his last 90,000 from the button.
Marcos Thielke: K♠10♠
Umberto Ruggeri: K♣Q♦
"Nine or an ace," Theilke pleaded as he shot up from his seat to await the turn. The dealer flipped over the K♥ to improve Ruggeri to two pair, while the 7♣ river completed the board and Thielke was sent to the rail.
