Shmuel Goldenberg Eliminated in 14th Place (€28,780)
Lulei Hu raised to 400,000 in middle position before Shmuel Goldenberg moved all in for 3,500,000 in the cutoff. "Maybe it's a big flip," Hu said as he called.
While they were waiting to turn over their cards, Mahersh Selvakumaran had opened to 400,000 under the gun on the other table, and Yulian Bogdanov called in the big blind.
Selvakumaran bet 350,000 on the A♠6♦9♠ flop, and Bogdanov called to see the 2♣ turn. Selvakumaran then bet 900,000, and Bogdanov folded this time.
Hu and Goldenberg then revealed their cards.
Shmuel Goldenberg: A♣Q♣
Lulei Hu: A♠K♦
Hu had Goldenberg dominated going to the flop, which came 10♦7♦4♣. The turn was the 8♠, while the A♦ river gave both players top pair but Hu remained in the lead with his king-kicker to send Goldenberg to the rail in 14th place.
