Adams on a Rollercoaster Ride

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Timothy Adams was one of the first players to surpass 200,000 chips but then quickly found himself back to a starting stack. The action folded around to Benjamin Pollak on the button who raised to 4,000. Timothy Adams slid forward a stack of around 80,000 chips and Pollak instantly called.

It took a moment for the cards to be tabled but when they were, it was Pollak with the {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and Adams showed {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. The flop came {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Pollak was still in the lead with his pocket aces. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave Adams some straight outs and the {3-Diamonds} on the river completed it for him. Pollak was sent to the registration desk to use his one re-entry.
