Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Matthias Kafka raised to around 20,000 under the gun before Alessandro Pichierri three-bet the small blind to 65,000. Once the big blind folded, Kafka instantly jammed for 285,000. Pichierri looked back at his cards and then made the call with just a few big blinds more than Kafka.
Matthias Kafka: 7♦7♠
Alessandro Pichierri :Q♣Q♥
Pichierri had the bigger pair and Kafka looked poised to exit the tournament.
Pichierri improved to a set on the 8♣4♣K♥J♠Q♦ runout to win the pot and send Kafka to the rail.
