Defending Champion Moolhuizen Busts
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Alessandro Adinolfo opened to 2,500 from early position before Charles Whitehouse three-bet to 8,000 from the hijack. Reigning FPS Main Event champion Mateusz Moolhuizen was forced all-in from the big blind for crumbs and he would be against two players, as Adinolfo called.
Adinolfo check-called for 6,000 on the K?Q?9? flop before the 8? turn checked through to the K? river. Adinolfo chucked out 5,000 and Whitehouse folded.
Adinolfo tabled A?Q? for kings and queens to take the side pot. Moolhuizen, who was blind, first flipped over the 3?, which was then followed by the 6?, marking his departure.
