Minovic Misses the Pay Jump

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Heads-up play was already underway with Randall Oakley with all his chips worth around 800,000 in the middle of the table waiting for Nikola Minovic to act.

Minovic was staring at the 22Q flop and the pot of around 500,000 beside it. With only a little more than 100,000 behind, he took significant time mulling things over until clock was called on him. On the last 5 seconds, he threw a chip in for a call.

Nikola Minovic: AJ All in
Randall Oakley: A7

Minovic was ahead but Oakley was hoping for his flush draw to complete. The dealer completed the board with a 6 turn and a 3 river, completing Oakley's flush and eliminating Minovic.

As he was leaving, Minovi asked the floor if he made the pay jump but was told he did not.
