Bubble Bursts; Portiansky and Koko Chop 15th Place
On Table 2, Eduard Norel raised to 11,000 from middle position and Alin Pandilica called from the small blind. Daniel Portiansky three-bet shoved 108,500 from the big blind, Norel folded, and Pandilica called after thinking for two minutes.
The cards remained closed as action was still going on Table 1. Chipleader Dawid Borkowski had raised and Roi Koko had three-bet to 26,000 behind him. Back on Borkowski, he simply shoved, putting Koko to the test for his entire stack of almost 200,000.
Koko through for nearly five minutes, deep in thought, presumably not realizing that Portiansky was all in at the other table. Eventually, Koko slid in a call, and their hand was the first to go to showdown.
Dawid Borkowski: 
Roi Koko: 
The Israeli rail cheered for their countryman, while Koko stood up and moved to one of his friends at the rail. He turned his gaze away from the table as the dealer slowly fanned out a 
board.
The four on the river completed Borkowski's straight and drew gasps from the rail. Koko turned his head to the table to see his fate, then left with a shocked look on his face
However, the Israeli could still chop 15th place prize money as Portiansky was all in at the other table. The hands there were as follows:
Daniel Portiansky: 
Alin Pandilica: 
Portiansky was caught stealing and had to bow out after a 
board. Per PokerStars LIVE rules, both players chopped up 15th place prize money due to being at different tables.
