No Bing for Pinguelo as Tens Get Cracked
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Nicholas Pinguelo opened the action from middle position with a raise to 27,000, leaving himself just 2,500 behind. Sitting right next to him, Sorin Ionut Morariu made the call, and with no other takers, the two went heads-up to a flop of 8♦4♦J♥.
Pinguelo wasted no time and tossed in his last 2,500, which Morariu snap-called.
Nicholas Pinguelo: 10♣10♦
Sorin Ionut Morariu:A♦K♥
Pinguelo was ahead with his pocket tens, but the A♠ on the turn flipped the script, giving Morariu top pair. The 9♣ river offered no help, and with that, Pinguelo’s tournament run came to an end.
