A Little Bit of Black Magic Sends Kozieja to the Rail

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Grzegorz Kozieja
Grzegorz Kozieja

Arnaud Enselme raised to 80,000 from under the gun, and Michael Dwyer called in the small blind. Grzegorz Kozieja responded with a three-bet to 485,000 from the big blind, leaving one 5,000 chip behind. Enselme four-bet all-in, which quickly removed Dwyer, and Kozieja committed his final chip.

Grzegorz Kozieja: KK All in
Arnaud Enselme: AQ

The J73 flop and 7 turn offered Enselme no extra help, leaving him with just three outs in his quest to reduce the field by one. As the dealer burned a card and began to turn the river, Enselme flicked his A towards where the final card was about to land. As if by magic, it arrived just as the A completed the board, bringing Kozieja's Main Event to an end.

Kozieja's elimination saw him fall in 24th, busting at the same time as Henok Tekle Mariam, just shy of the final three tables.
