Parmar Celebrates Too Early

Mathieu Di Meglio opened to 640,000 from the button, leaving just 30,000 behind. Taran Parmar re-shoved from the big blind with a covering stack and Di Meglio called to put himself at risk.

Taran Parmar: 66

"Yes!" Parmar exclaimed upon making a set on the 64Q flop. The J turn gave Di Meglio some outs in the form of a gutshot straight draw which came in on the 10 river to give Di Meglio the unlikely double up.

"You celebrated too early. Automatic runner runner" Vladas Tamasauskas joked as Di Meglio took in a full double up.

Vladas Tamasauskas
Vladas Tamasauskas

Mathieu Di Meglio opened from the hijack to 205,000. Vladas Tamasauskas reraised from the cutoff to 520,000. Action folded back around to Di Meglio who made the call.

The 109K flop was checked around before Di Meglio led the 6 turn for 460,000. Tamasauskas made the call.

Di Meglio led all in on the 10 river, putting Tamasauskas at risk of elimination. Tamasauskas went deep into the tank. And by deep into the tank, ten minutes had elapsed before Boris Angelov called the clock.

With one second to go, Tamasauskas made the call. Di Meglio threw his cards across the table. The dealer turned them over and revealed 57 for pure bluff.

Tamasauskas showed AK for two pair.
