TA Double Leaves Nortje on Four Chips
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
TA opened to 120,000 with the K♠K♣ and Alexandre Blanc called in the cutoff holding the 6♦6♣. Marko Nortje called in the big blind with J♥8♥ and checked the J♦9♥4♥ flop. TA jammed for massive 1,325,000 to force out Blanc, but Nortje called with the almost identical stack.
Neither the A♦ turn nor the 4♠ river changed anything and Nortje was left on literal fumes.
