Stoika Eliminated as Khordbin First to Reach Seven Figures
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Hadi Khordbin opened his button to 8,000, and Roman Stoika defended in the big blind. Stoika checked the 2♣9♣7♥ flop to Khordbin, who fired a continuation-bet worth 8,000.
Stoika raised to 31,000, only to be put all in by Khordbin. Stoika quickly called, putting him at risk for 241,000.
Roman Stoika: 9♦7♠
Hadi Khordbin: A♣3♣
Stoika's two pair was in the lead, but Khordbin's flush came in on the K♣ turn. The 4♠ river did not fill up Stoika, and he consequently exited the tournament area.
