Kozieja Hits the Flop to Double
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Grzegorz Kozieja raised to 220,000 from under the gun, leaving himself just an eighth of a big blind behind. Matas Cimbolas called from the small blind and accidentally turned over his pocket eights, thinking Kozieja was all in.
There were still some flops Kozieja could fold, but after Cimbolas put him all in on the 6♦3♥Q♦ flop, Kozieja beat him into the pot with a call.
Grzegorz Kozieja: Q♥10♦
Matas Cimbolas: 8♦8♠
Kozieja had found top pair to take the lead, leaving Cimbolas needing an eight to send him home.
No eight came on the 3♠ turn or J♣ river, and Kozieja doubled up to over ten big blinds.
