Bronshtein Gets There

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

It folded around to Yuval Bronshtein in the small blind who completed the bet before the big blind raised to 2,100. Bronshtein re-raised enough to force the big blind all in and he called.

Bronshtein was far behind the {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} of his opponent with just {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}. He would have to wait all the way to the river on a {3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} board to get there but that is all that matters. With the pot, he now has a 41,000 stack as we near the end of Day 1.
