Toma Hits the River to Send Out Djenkal
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Just as players were going off on break, Gael Djenkal had opened to 40,000 under the gun before Tsugunari Toma three-bet to 115,000 in the cutoff. Djenkal called, and they saw a flop of 10♥4♣6♠.
Toma then bet 100,000, and Djenkal came back with a raise to 250,000. Toma called, and the 6♥ fell on the turn.
Djenkal checked over to Toma, who bet another 110,000. Djenkal just called this time to see the J♥ river, where Toma bet enough to put him all in.
Djenkal burned through several time banks and tanked for nearly seven minutes into the break before calling for his last 150,000. Toma then showed A♥J♦ for a rivered pair. "Nice river," Djenkal said as he mucked A♠10♠ and headed off to the exit.
