Petrangelo Falls on the Bubble to Einhorn’s Set
Level 18
: Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante
Bryn Kenney was in the cutoff with 9♦7♣ and raised to 480,000. Nick Petrangelo three-bet on the button to 2,400,000 with K♦Q♥, holding only 575,000 behind. David Einhorn in the big blind cold-called.
Kenney folded, and both Einhorn and Petrangelo checked the 10♦2♦8♣ flop. On the J♣ turn, Einhorn moved all in and Petrangelo called.
Nick Petrangelo: K♦Q♥
David Einhorn: 10♥10♣
Einhorn had flopped a set, leaving Petrangelo drawing to an open-ended straight. The 3♣ river didn't provide any help and Petrangelo was eliminated on the bubble, guaranteeing the remaining nine players $518,518.
