Is Stolzenfeld the Chosen One?
Pokernews caught up with current chip leader Steven Stolzenfeld and his tablemates as they recounted what was described as "The hand of the Tournament".
Things got started when the hijack opened to 80,000. It then folded to the button who put in the three-bet to 250,000. Stolzenfeld was next to act in the small blind and put in a cold four-bet to 590,000. The hijack folded and action was back on the button who five-bet to 950,000. Stolzenfeld flat called.
The 10x10x8x flop was checked over to the button who put out a continuation bet of 325,000. Stolzenfeld smooth called again.
The turn brought a Kx and this time the players both slowed down and checked.
The 2x landed on the river and without hesitation Stolzenfeld open jammed for 1,600,000 effective. The button tanked but eventually flicked in the call and was shown the bad news.
Stolzenfeld called the five bet and immediately flopped quad tens. The button flashed aces in disgust as he exited the tournament after what can only be described as an absolutely horrendous bad beat.
