Gamble Pays Off for Livingston
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Alexandru Papazian opened to 1,100 from middle position before Alex Livingston three-bet to 3,500 from the button. Renan Menezes then four-bet shoved for 13,300 from the small blind, forcing a fold from Papazian.
"Let's gamble" Livingston commented before flicking in the call with a covering stack.
Renan Menezes: 10?10?
Alex Livingston: K?10?
Menezes was in great shape to double up and remained ahead on the 5?7?7? flop. That all changed when the K? turn left Menezes drawing to just one out. The 2? river was a brick and Menezes made his exit from the tournament area while Livingston took down a healthy pot.
