Robert Gittleman Eliminated in 5th Place ($92,953)
Level 41
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Robert Gittelman raised to 10,000,000 in late position, but was met with resistance from Ka Chun Kan, who three-bet all in on the button.
The blinds got out of the way, and Gittelman immediately pushed his remaining 8,000,000 forward to call. He didn’t like what he saw when the cards were tabled.
Gittelman: 4♣4♠
Kan: J♥J♠
“I need a four,” Gittelman said to his cheering section on the rail.
Unfortunately, a four never arrived when the dealer ran out 3♠A♥9♦2♦K♦ on the board. Gittelman’s former stack boosted Kan to 92,000,000, which placed him well ahead of the remaining players.
Gittelman finished in fifth place for $92,953.
