Eljach Wastes No Time
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Three-handed on a board of 3?6?K?5?, Omar Eljach led out for 7,500 from the small blind and Marco Poccia called in the big blind. George Tomescu folded under the gun and Eljach and Poccia went heads-up to the river.
The dealer flipped over 7? and Eljach bet another 8,000. Poccia then came back with a raise to 27,000 and Eljach snap-called, showing A?4? for a straight. Poccia flashed 6?3? for two pair before mucking as the defending champion took down the pot.
