Margolis Bags the Minimum
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In the last hand of the evening for the table and the Horseshoe Blue section, Gary Margolis agonized over making a call.
Adrien Zychowski had gone all in on the river with the board reading: 10♣10♦K♥9♣9♠.
Margolis thought about it for a few minutes, then made the call.
Zychowski turned over K♣K♦ for a full house, kings over tens.
Margolis had Q♠J♠ for just a straight. He walked away, defeated.
The dealer asked a reporter to chase him down and ask him to return to the table, because he had 106,500 chips, while Zychowski had only 106,000.
Margolis had to bag one 500 chip.
