Action folded all the way to Asiil Maye, who opened to 400,000 from the Small Blind. “I can’t believe you,” Maye said, as Angel Popov moved all in for 2,070,000. After utilizing a 30-second timebank chip, Maye eventually decided to call.
Angel Popov: A♠5♠
Asiil Maye: K♦10♠
“I’m alive,” a relieved Maye said, thankful he wasn’t in a worst-case scenario. Much to his pleasure, he took a solid lead on the 2♣K♠2♦ flop, and even though asking the Poker Gods for an Ace, the 6♣3♠ runout didn’t help Popov. He was eliminated in seventh place for £2,020.
Asiil Maye: 6,900,000
Angel Popov: 0
