Kertland Busts in Brutal Fashion
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Liviu-Rodrig Bartha opened the action with a raise to 80,000 from middle position, which was called by David Bagheri in the cutoff.
Jesse Kertland then shoved for 580,000, and Liviu-Rodrig Bartha reshoved. Frustratedly, Bagheri mucked A♥Q♣ face up, and got even more frustrated upon seeing the tabled cards.
Jesse Kertland: K♥Q♥
Liviu-Rodrig Bartha: K♠Q♠
Bagheri carried on rambling as the 5♣A♦J♦ saw his mucked cards improve even more, however the 2♦3♦ runout improbably gave Bartha the nuts, sending Kertland home nastily. "But you mucked the ace of diamonds!" joked a tablemate with Bagheri as he double checked the board to make sure.
