Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Dario Sammartino was under the gun with just 30,000 left when he decided to go all in blind. Christian Pedersen in middle position made it 50,000, and action folded to Derk Van Luijk who raised to 250,000. Pedersen mucked, leaving the two players heads up.
Dario Sammartino: A♠K♠
Derk Van Luijk: K♦K♣
Sammartino had not looked at his cards and was pleasantly surprised to find ace king, but the board ran out 4♣5♣5♦6♦Q♦, giving no help and sending him to the exit.
