Mystery Kid Eliminated in 2nd Place (€76,500)
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Mystery Kid limped in from the button and Viorel Gavrila checked his option in the big blind.
On the A♥9♣4♣ flop, Gavrila checked and Mystery Kid bet 1,500,000. Gavrila raised to 4,000,000 and then called when Mystery Kid made it 7,500,000.
There was 19,500,000 in the pot going to the board-pairing 4♥ turn. Gavrila check-called for 4,500,000.
The 9♠ river double paired the board, and Gavrila jammed as the big stack. Mystery Kid had 11,500,000 behind and shook his head in disbelief. He thought it over briefly, and called for his tournament life.
Gavrila raised his hands in triumph, tabling 9♥5♠ for nines full of fours. Mystery Kid had A♦K♥, and had to settle for second place.
