Cimbolas Hero-Calls and is Shown Quads by Nielsen
Matas Cimbolas raised to 18,000 from middle position and Martin Nielsen three-bet to 60,000 from the button. When it got back to Cimbolas, he called to see a flop.
Cimbolas knuckled the action over to Nielsen on the 7♦K♥3♠ flop, and Nielsen laid out a bet of 35,000. Cimbolas continued in the form of a call.
The K♠ landed on the turn and Cimbolas check-called another bet from Nielsen, this time for 75,000.
With 235,000 remaining in his stack, Cimbolas checked for the last time when he saw the 2♣ complete the board. Nielsen quickly jammed, covering Cimbolas, and Cimbolas went deep into the tank.
Cimbolas stood up from his chair and burned through all five of his time bank cards while deliberating whether to call or fold. In the end, he settled on a call.
Nielsen had an unbeatable hand in K♣K♦ for quad kings. Cimbolas tabled 6♦6♠ for just a pair of sixes as his Main Event journey came to an end.
