Fourie Loses Balls; Poonhath Wins Chips
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
"I have lost my balls!" Rudolf Fourie loudly exclaimed when he bolted away from the table. He had folded preflop when a shorter stacked Hadar Goren was all-in with with 8♣8♠ against the 10♦10♥ of Rajeev Poonhath, who remained ahead all the way on the A♣A♠4♥7♠5♣ runout.
Apparently, Goren had already been eliminated by Poonhath earlier today only to re-enter and meet his nemesis again.
