The bubble has burst in Day 1c of the €350 Mini Main Event.
It all played out at Table 4. On Blinds 5,000/10,000, Latvia’s Lauris Krievs limped UTG. Three players made the call, including Lithuania’s Sigitas Raila on the Button. Action was checked to Krievs on the J♠10♥Q♠ flop, and he continued for 13,000. One player made the call before Raila made it 60,000. Back to Krievs, who moved all in for around 200,000 in total. The unidentified player folded before Raila committed his 120,000 stack to make the call for his tournament life.
Lauris Krievs: A♠K♠
Sigitas Raila: J♣10♣
Raila was trailing with two pair against the flopped nut straight of Krievs. Krievs improved to the nut flush on the 8♠ turn, and the 2♥ river ultimately sealed the deal. Raila was eliminated in seventieth place, and the remaining 69 players all received a bag for their ceramic chips. They’ll be reunited with them tomorrow, Sunday, July 26, when Day 2 kicks off at 12:00.
