Loeser Stays Alive; Bahri Runs Into Flak's Kings
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Manig Loeser moved all in for 58,000 from under the gun and Andreas Goeller called in the big blind.
Manig Loeser: A♠9♥
Andreas Goeller: A♥5♠
Loeser had Goeller dominated and was a favorite to earn the double up as the board ran out 4♠8♦K♣J♦2♣, keeping his nine-kicker in the lead and earning him a double up.
At the same time at another table, Safwane Bahri got in his last 120,000 from the cutoff and Grzegorz Flak put him at risk in the small blind.
Safwane Bahri: 9♠9♥
Grzegorz Flak: K♣K♥
Flak had woken up with kings and was poised for the knockout as the flop came A♦6♣2♣. The turn was the Q♠, while Flak improved to a set on the K♦ river to send Bahri to the rail.
