Comeback Kid Bansal Remains in Contention
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
After making two pay jumps with his stack of just 50,000, Paawan Bansal called all-in from the cutoff after Dimitrios Gkatzas had opened to 400,000 under the gun.
The rest of the table folded, creating a showdown.
Paawan Bansal: A♣Q♥
Dimitrios Gkatzas: A♥4♥
Bansal had the dominating hand. Although the 3♣J♦8♠2♣ turn gave Gkatzas some extra outs, the Q♣ river awarded Bansal the pot with top pair to septuple up to a stack worth less than two big blinds.
