Gheorghe Butuc Eliminated in 7th Place ($40,923)
Nível 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Gheorghe Butuc got his remaining 1,350,000 into the middle against Kevin Rand, who covered. When their hands were turned up Stephen Nahm couldn't help but chime in, "It's like a hold'em hand!".
Gheorghe Butuc: A♠K♠10♦8♠
Kevin Rand: Q♥Q♣10♠10♣
Nahm's statement felt accurate when the A♣3♣3♦ fanned out and Rand was already calling for a club when the Q♦ peeled, giving Rand a boat, locking up the hand as the 8♥ fell on the river.
Butuc, obviously deflated, left without saying a word to his tablemates.
