Friedl Eliminates Stoika to Collect Another Bounty
Siegfried Friedl raised to 300,000 in the hijack and Roman Stoika three-bet jammed for 810,000 in the cutoff to put himself at risk. Friedl made the call.
Roman Stoika: A♣7♦
Sigfried Friedl: Q♣Q♦
Stoika picked up additional outs with a wheel draw on the 3♣2♠4♥ flop but couldn't get there as the board ran out J♥, 10♣, sending him to the rail in sixth place.
With Kalle Parkkinen eliminated shortly thereafter, just four players remain in contention in the $4K NLH Big Bounty.
