Capurro Leaves Abramov with Crumbs
Eric Abramov opened to 2,000 from under the gun, which led to a call from Stephen Kujubu on the button. Allan Capurro was interested in a larger number as he made it 10,000 from the big blind. Abramov called, while Kujubu ejected his hand.
The 2♣9♦4♥ flop led to an all-in from Capurro for 20,100. Abramov called to put Capurro at risk for it all.
Allan Capurro: Q♥Q♦
Eric Abramov: J♦J♠
Capurro had the lead every step of the way and needed to fade a jack with two cards to go to complete the job.
The 2♥ turn was a blank.
The river was a paint card, but it hit neither player as the K♣ peeled to give Capurro the best hand and the pot.
Abramov was left with only 800 chips after the loss. He was forced all-in from the big blind on the next hand. Abramov was unable to find a way out of the predicament, and he was eliminated.
