Michnik Feels the Cost

Michael Michnik raised to 50,000 from the button but found himself facing a reraise to 100,000 from Gabe Costner. Michnik disappeared into the tank for some time, and when he emerged again it was to go all in.

Insta-call.

Michnik: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Costner: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Board: an all-over-the-place {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Spades}

Michnik improved to a Broadway straight, just missing out on the royal flush by one. Costner, however, made a full house, and doubled to 1,085,000.

Michnik was crippled to just 85,000.
