Gotuzzo Misses His Draw to Bust
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Four-way to the monotone Q♠J♠6♠ flop, Lev Margolin and Eldiyar Janiev checked from the blinds, allowing John Driver to bet 1,000 from the hijack. Hugo Gotuzzo called on the button before Margolin check-raised to 4,500. Janiev and Driver got out of the way, but Gotuzzo responded by jamming for about 20,000. Margolin called.
Hugo Gotuzzo: A♠9♦
Lev Margolin: 5♠4♠
Despite having the best hand with a flopped flush and the covering stack, Margolin was the one out of his seat as he waited to see if he could dodge another spade.
The 8♣ turn and 4♦ river were no help to Gotuzzo, sending him to the rail in the first level of the Main Event.
