Lofberg on Piles After Eliminating Kotowicz
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Sebastian Kotowicz open-jammed from the hijack for 880,000. Simon Lofberg asked for a count in the cutoff before committing a call.
Sebastian Kotowicz: 9♠9♥ 
Simon Lofberg: J♠J♥
Kotowicz's inferior pocket pair failed to work a miracle on the 2♣10♥7♠A♥4♣ runout, sending him to the rail.
Lofberg, meanwhile, expanded his already big stack and became the first player to cross the five-million mark.
