Tomas Novotny Eliminated in 23rd Place ($6,472)
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ryan Oliver raised to 75,000 on the button and was called by Dorel Eldabach in the small blind. Tomas Novotny, in the big blind, then moved all in for around 400,000.
"Sick squeeze spot," Oliver said before he mucked. Eldabach, though, called to put Novotny at risk.
Tomas Novotny: A♦K♠J♥9♦
Dorel Eldabach: A♠Q♥3♥2♠
The 5♥10♦A♥ flop gave both players top pair, but Eldabach improved to a flush on the K♥ turn.
The river came the 2♣ and Novotny was eliminated in 23rd place.
After the hand, Oliver admitted he would've flopped a set. "You would've won all my chips," he told Eldabach.
"This guy has big talent," Sebastian Langrock said about Eldabach.
