Nitsche Leaves Mao With Crumbs
Level 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Renji Mao opened to 20,000 first to act and action folded to Dominik Nitsche, who shoved for 179,000 in the small blind. Mao tanked for a bit, but eventually said, "Gamble!" and slammed his chips into the middle.
Dominik Nitsche: A♥K♥
Renji Mao: A♠J♣
The 8♦10♦J♥ flop looked like Mao's gamble paid off, but the 5♠Q♦ runout improved Nitsche to Broadway and he doubled up through Mao, who was left with just 3,000.
