Aleksandr Gorichev
In the last hand before the next break, Manoj Pentakota raised to 40,000 and Aleksandr Gorichev jammed the button for 417,000. Both blinds folded and Pentakota asked for a count before he eventually called all-in for less.
Manoj Pentakota: A ♣️ J ♥️
Aleksandr Gorichev: A ♥️ K ♠️
The inferior kicker came on the J ♣️ 8 ♣️ 3 ♥️ flop and the 6 ♣️ turn took away an out from Gorichev. No miracle came on the Q ♥️ river for Pentakota to double for 326,000.
When the 15 remaining players from their 15-minute break, the blinds will be 10,000-25,000/25,000.
