Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Bart Lybaert
Bart Lybaert

A player opened under-the-gun to 16,000 which James Romero from one seat over responded by three-betting to 28,000. From one seat over, Bart Lybaert went all-in for 182,000 which folded the action over to George Wolff on the button, who decided to move all-in for 178,000. The initial raiser folded and Romero snap-called.

Bart Lybaert: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
George Wolff: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
James Romero: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Hearts} which gave no improvement to any player, leaving Wolff to triple up and Romero to take a tiny side pot to eliminated Lybaert.
