Goasdoue Goes for the Trap
Niveau 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Tom Orpaz open-raised to 100,000 from middle position and Alan Goasdoue defended his big blind. The flop fell J♥6♣8♣ and all the chips went in the middle. Goasdoue played 345,000 and was at risk.
Alan Goasdoue: A♣A♠
Tom Orpaz: K♣Q♣
Goasdoue went for the trap preflop but was in a precarious situation with his opponent having flopped a flush draw. Even more outs arrived on the K♥ turn, but the 8♠ river gave Gaosdoue the better two pair to double up.
Meanwhile Orpaz was left with only 275,000 chips, equating to five and a half big blinds in this stage of the tournament.
