Pyzara Spikes Ace to Chip Up to Around 2.8 Million
Igor Zolotukhin raised to 55,000 from under the gun and Alexandru Lupuleac reraised to 160,000. Kacper Pyzara then four-bet to 385,000 from the small blind. Zolotukhin folded and Lupuleac five-bet all in for a little over 1.4 million chips. Pyzara called with a little less and players flipped their cards in what was an absolutely huge all-in confrontation.
Kacper Pyzara: A♦K♣
Alexandru Lupuleac: K♦K♠
Pyzara sighed as he realized his tournament life was seriously at risk. But the board ran out 2♣4♣A♠3♣J♦ to give him a pair of aces on the flop. He held to win the pot and double his stack, the sigh transformed into a wry smile.
Pyzara chipped up to around 2.8 million, putting him close to the top of the chip counts. Lupuleac was left with just 100,000.
