Pugh-Jones is No More
Level 13
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Gruffudd Pugh-Jones and Eelis Pärssinen collided in a hand that saw each player commit 440,000 preflop as they duked it out.
Pärssinen asked for the rest of Pugh-Jones' stack when the flop came K♥4♦9♣ by betting 240,000. Pugh-Jones called to be at risk for his tournament life.
Gruffudd Pugh-Jones: A♥K♦Q♣6♣
Eelis Pärssinen: A♠A♦Q♠2♠
Pärssinen had the edge with his pair of aces, and the 9♦ turn did not change his lead. Unfortunately for Pugh-Jones, the J♠ fell on the river to signal his exit as Pärssinen won the pot.
