Kabrhel Doubles, Livingston Leaves

Niveau 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Alex Livingston limped in middle position followed by a late postion call. It then folded to Martin Kabrhel on the button, who quickly moved all in.

It folded back to Livingston, who said "Ok, I'll gamble," and put in the rest of his chips. The late position player folded and the cards hit their backs.

Martin Kabrhel: A♥6♠
Alex Livingston: 3♠3♦

"Why do you slowroll when you have the nuts?" Kabrhel said as the hands were tabled.

The full board ran out A♣J♣4♦K♠K♣ and Kabrhel got a pure double to get him back closer to starting stack.

The next hand Livingston shoved his last 3,000 and was sent to the rail when his opponent flopped a set.

Fresh off his bracelet win in the $25,000 H.O.R.S.E last night, Josh Arieh opened to 800 from late position and only got called from the big blind.
