Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
A shout of anguish went up from Table 30, and it soon became clear it had come from Julian Bartholmes.
Bartholmes was all-in with 8♠8♦, and had flopped a set on A♠8♥7♣. His opponent, Nicolas Burtin had J♦10♦, and got there on the river via the 9♥ turn and 6♥ river for a one-card straight, it being unclear precisely when the chips hit the middle.
What was clear was that Bartholmes was absolutely devastated with the outcome, a look of pure heartbreak on his face.
