Cimbolas Avoids Elimination
Holding A♣K♠, Manuel Ferrari raised to 200,000 from under the gun, and Matas Cimbolas defended his big blind with K♣J♥.
Cimbolas opted to check-raise on the K♦4♣4♠ flop, making it 400,000 with his top pair, after Ferrari had continued for 125,000, and Ferrari called. The 9♦ turn slowed Cimbolas down, as he reverted to checking. Ferrari responded with a bet of 350,000, which Cimbolas called.
The 3♦ completed the board, and Cimbolas checked a third time. Ferrari emptied the clip, moving all-in, having Cimbolas' 1,730,000 stack well covered.
Cimbolas utilised three time extensions, while looking to gain any read he could from Ferrari. As the clock ticked down, he made the correct decision and folded, seeing the chip leader pull even further ahead of the field.
