Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Osman Aksu opened the action with a raise to 10,000 under the gun. Roman Stoica upped the ante to 30,000 in the next seat before Rui Martins committed his stack of 90,000 in the cutoff.
Aksu quickly folded, but Stoica decided he could not fold for the price and called.
Rui Martins: A♥K♥ 
Roman Stoica: A♠2♣
Stoica flopped bottom pair on 4♠2♠10♥, which remained the best hand on the 6♦7♥ runout, sending Martins home with a bad beat story to tell.
