Amit Abriol has just been eliminated in 12th place after what can only be described as a cooler spot.

With the blinds at 15K/30K, Abriol opened the action to 75K from early position. Popescu made the call on the button, and the blinds folded, so they went heads up. They saw a flop of 9 of Hearts Ace of Diamonds 10 of Diamonds and, before long, all the chips went in. Abriol made a continuation bet of 150K and Popescu, who had the bigger stack going in to the hand, raised all in. Abriol called immediately and hands were tabled.

Popescu: 10 of Spades 10 of Hearts

Abriol: 9 of Clubs 9 of Spades

Set over set on the flop! A spot that’s nearly impossible to get away from in hold’em, and this one was no exception. The 2 of Diamonds turn and Jack of Spades river did not provide Abriol’s one-outer, and he hit the rail in 12th place. He will take home $1,860.00 for his trouble.
