Gioi Luong Loses A Brutal Hand

Yuval Bronshtein limped into a pot with {K-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and called when Gioi Luong raised with {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. And the flop?

{8-Spades}{K-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

You’d expect fireworks and that’s exactly what we had. Bronshtein bet, Luong raised all-in and Bronshtein called…and found out he was drawing to the two eights left in the deck.

The turn? The {8-Diamonds}.

No Ace fell on the river and that horrible beat meant that Gioi Luong was eliminated in 7th place instead of becoming our chip leader. The $31,070 he’ll take home will probably provide small comfort after losing that hand.
