Short-Stacked Brumaru Can't Spin it Up

Tyler Foran

Niveau 23 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Pedro Lopes raised 50,000 on the button and Alexandru Brumaru called off his last 40,000 from the big blind.

Alexandru Brumaru: 7♥6♣
Pedro Lopes: K♦9♠

The dealer spread a flop of K♠8♣7♣, giving both players a pair but Brumaru couldn't pull ahead as the board completed with the A♠ turn and 9♦ river.
