Dominguez's Roller-Coaster Ride Comes to an End
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
It was a roller-coaster stretch for Jorge Dominguez over the course of just a few hands.
First, Dominguez doubled up with A♥K♥ against the 8♦8♠ of Erick Sarkis. Dominguez paired his ace on the 2♣5♥A♣J♥J♣ runout to stay alive and gain some breathing room.
However, the momentum was short-lived. Just a few hands later, Dominguez got his chips in with AxKx against the 10♥10♦ of Shayan Eshraghi. The 9♣Q♥J♥A♦8♦ board gave Eshraghi a straight, sending a large portion of Dominguez's stack across the table.
Left with just 14,000 chips, Dominguez was forced all in from the big blind soon after. This time he held 10♣5♠ but ran into the A♠J♣ of Lifu Zhang. Dominguez found no help on the 8♣A♥3♥2♠7♥ board and was eliminated from the tournament.
