Vornicu Soars Over One Million Chips

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Valentin Vornicu
Valentin Vornicu

Serge Danis opened to 26,000 from early position and Jonas Holm three-bet to 75,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Denis who four-bet shoved all-in and Holm called off his 172,000 chips. Danis was out front with {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} against Holm's {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. The board ran out {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Holm was off to collect his money.

In the next hand, the action folded to James Hoeppner who moved his short stack into the middle. Valentin Vornicu called from the big blind and turned over {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}. Hoeppner had a pocket pair with {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} but when the flop fell {q-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts}, Vornicu took the lead. The turn was the {4-Clubs} and the river landed the {a-Clubs}. Vornicu won another flip on Day 2 and is the first player to reach the seven-figure mark.
