Worthington-Leese Makes Pay Jump as Moolhuizen Claims Another Stack
Leo Worthington-Leese was in the cutoff and had looked up the all-in of big blind Donato De Bonis. De Bonis had jammed for 720,000, which Worthington-Leese covered by only 10,000.
Donato De Bonis: J♥J♣
Leo Worthington-Leese: 10♠10♦
De Bonis faced no threats on the K♠4♥9♣8♠2♣ runout, seeing his jacks hold for a full double-up.
One hand later, at the same table, Rolando Carrera got his stack of 635,000 in from the big blind against Mateusz Moolhuizen on the button.
Rolando Carrera: A♠K♦
Mateusz Moolhuizen: 9♠9♦
Carrera did not find a pair on the 8♣4♦Q♦ flop or 2♥ turn, and the 9♣ river provided Moolhuizen with a set to secure the knock-out.
Having secured a pay jump, Worthington-Leese committed his final 10,000 on the next deal and was also eliminated, while at another table Marian Virlanuta was seen taking his exit.
