Mesika Doubles Up, Still Exits Early
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Matan Mesika was all-in for his remaining 3,900 chips in the hijack and saw Oscar Mas Pons call from the big blind.
Matan Mesika: K♠Q♣
Oscar Mas Pons: 10♥8♥
Mesika was looking to hold and flopped top pair on the 9♣3♥K♥ board, but Mas Pons also picked up a heart flush draw.
The 6♠ turn was safe for Mesika, and he held on the 4♣ river to secure a double up, taking him up to 9,500.
Unfortunately, his time ran out just a few hands later as he was seen leaving the tournament area.
