Level 5: 300/600 (600)
Entries: 146/169
Michael Pinto was down to half a starting stack but now will need to re-enter if he wishes to have any chips at all after hitting the rail after the following hand.
Nikola Minovic bet 3,800 into a pot of a bit more with the [invalid notations] on the flop. Pinto jammed for 24,900 and Minovic snap-called.
Michael Pinto: J♠3♠
Nikola Minovic: A♦J♦
Both players had middle pair but Pinto had some kicker issues. Those issues weren’t resolved after the [4h] turn and [6h] river completed the board for Minovic to claim his stack.
Nikola Minovic – 75,000
Michael Pinto – 0
