Pop Earns a Spot at Kabrhel's Final Table
Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Catalin Pop bet 80,000 from middle position on a flop of K♣A♥6♠ and Gerald Karlic called on the button.
The turn was the 9♠ and Pop bet 275,000. Karlic again called and the J♦ fell on the river. Pop then bet 425,000, and Karlic called once more.
Pop showed A♦J♠ for two pair, and Karlic mucked.
"Lucky river. You play very well. I see no mistakes from you so far. There's room for you at the final table," Martin Kabrhel told him.
"I'll take it," Pop replied.
"Sorry, no spots for you," Kabrhel added to Michail Manolakis.
