On the eve of level 2, Elvira Popescu, who finished 2nd in last month’s Playground 200 Event, doubled her belongings to the detriment of Jacques Blais.
When we got to the table, Popescu was all-in for her remaining 6,800, and Blais was eye-balling her. Considering the strength of his hand and the amount of chips already invested – Popescu started the hand with a full stack – he must have had a pretty strong feeling that he was beat to even consider a fold. In the end, and understandably, he wasn’t able to let go of this multi-colored pot and called.
Board: 
Popescu: 
Oof! Blais threw the 
face up, and mucked his other card. He is left with about 7K.
