Bussmann Survives on the River
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Tzur Levy had just picked up two queens to double up off Michael Sklenicka when he opened to 11,000 under the gun the next hand. Sklenicka called on the button, while Daniel Bussmann then moved all in for 100,000 in the small blind. Only Levy called.
Daniel Bussmann: A♣K♦
Tzur Levy: Q♣Q♦
Levy had found queens for a second straight hand and was in a classic flip with Bussmann going to the flop, which came Q♥J♣8♠ to give him top set. The 5♣ turn left Bussmann a card from elimination, but he spiked the 10♦ on the river to make a straight and double up.
"I was thinking ten of diamonds on the river," Sklenicka said.
"It comes for him, not for you," Levy replied.
