Two Eliminations before the Break
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Only some 24 players remain in the fourth break of the day and there were two eliminations just before that.
A short stack went in for only 8,000 and Stephen Kurland did so for little more holding the K♦2♦. He was up against J♦10♦ and the K♣5♥4♦10♥5♠ board changed nothing in the preflop order.
Yoni Lipshitz then won the last hand before the break when he jammed into a bet of 21,000 on a completed board of A♦6♥2♣4♠Q♣. His opponent tank-called and Lipshitz tabled his 6♠6♦ for a flopped set, the other cards went flying into the muck.
Another ten-minute break is underway.
