Glazer Gets There

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

On a {4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop, Sidiki Matey, Ofer Glazer, and Iulian Ruxandescu all got their stacks in the middle. Glazer was all in for 22,300, Ruxandescu for 24,750, and Matey had both covered by a wide margin.

Sikidi Matey: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Ofer Glazer: {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Iulian Ruxandescu: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Ruxandescu held a substantial lead with his set of fours and needed to dodge the kings and hearts to win. The {A-Spades} on the turn was safe for Ruxandescu. However, the {J-Hearts} on the river gave Glazer a flush, and the Israeli loudly celebrated the fortunate turn of events.

Ruxandescu was left on fumes but picked up aces in the next hand to double up his short stack.
