Demadura Takes Out Murphy
Yury Klimenkov began the action with a raise from under the gun before he faced an immediate re-raise by Michael Murphy in the next seat over to 2,400. Robert Demadura wanted to play for more and bumped it to 7,400 from the big blind. Klimenkov got out of the way, and Murphy responded with an all-in for approximately 19,200. Demadura snap called and put Murphy at risk.
Michael Murphy: K♣K♥
Robert Demadura: Q♥Q♠
Murphy had Demadura's hand in trouble with the better pocket pair.
The flop was clean for Murphy as it came 7♦10♦7♠. The turn was not as kind as the Q♣ rolled off to give Demadura a full house.
The 9♥ was not one of Murphy's two outs to eliminate him early in Day 1e. Murphy was seeing reentering the tournament and will start with a fresh stack.
