Hochman Escapes From Elimination
Level 15
: Limits 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Day 1 chip leader Connor Drinan was eliminated by Jose Luis Velador before the next all-in showdown unfolded on the same table soon after.
Corey Hochman limped in from the small blind and Yuri Dzivielevski in the big blind raised, Hochman limp-reraised and earned a call from his table neighbour. One bet went in after the Q♦5♥2♥ flop before they got it in after the K♠ turn.
Corey Hochman: A♥A♠J♦3♥
Yuri Dzivielevski: K♣J♠7♣4♠
The 7♦ river gave Dzivielevski two pair while Hochman had the low for them to chop.
