Gamble Pays Off for Livingston
Niveau 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.
