Sargsyan Goes for Kitai
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Aram Sargsyan had just doubled through Davidi Kitai after getting in his pocket eights from an early position, against Kitai's pocket aces in the big blind and Sargsyan hit a set on the flop to take the pot.
Kitai sat back with just 7,000 and was in the small blind in the next hand and Sargsyan had just climbed up to 130,000 in chips.
After seeing Sargsyan open from under the gun to 10,000, Kitai moved his final 5,000 chips in to call.
Davidi Kitai: A♠Q♠
Aram Sargsyan: 2♥2♣
Kitai wasn't looking strong, but the board double paired on the 5♠10♦10♣8♠8♦ runout, securing Kitai his seat in the tournament.
