State Leaves Selvakumaran on Fumes; Buhaiov Hero Calls Gordo
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Adrian State bet 75,000 from under the gun on a board of K♠9♠J♦6♣ and Mahersh Selvakumaran called in the cutoff.
The river was the 4♥ and State bet another 225,000. Selvakumaran again called, and State showed K♣J♠ for two pair to win the pot and leave the former chip leader with less than 10 big blinds.
At another table, Nazar Buhaiov was facing an all-in shove from Guillermo Gordo on a board of 6♣K♣A♦4♣2♣. Buhaiov took a few minutes before calling for his last 225,000 out of the big blind, and Gordo could only show Q♠J♠ for a bluff. Buhaiov turned over A♠10♥ for top pair as he won the pot to double up.
