Igal Leis Flops Large to Drop Tanisha Ruwhiu

Jun 17, 2022

Tanisha Ruwhiu limps from middle position and Nicholas Lamport raises to 1,100 in the cutoff. Igal Leis calls on the button, Christopher Zenonos calls from the big blind, and Ruwhiu then bumps it up to 6,200.

Leis is the lone caller to see the Spade QClub 10Club 9 flop. Ruwhiu check-calls a bet of 10,000 and the dealer flips over a Club 4.

Ruwhiu jams the turn for around 12,000 and Leis quickly throws in enough chips to call, tabling Spade 10Diamond 10 for a set of dimes.

The set is well in front of Ruwhiu’s Spade ASpade K but she has a straight draw. Leis holds with his set when the Heart 8 completes the board and he pulls in the pot, dropping Ruwhiu early on Day 1C.

Igal Leis – 57,000 (285 bb)
Christopher Zenonos – 28,200 (141 bb)
Nicholas Lamport – 27,400 (137 bb)
Tanisha Ruwhiu – Eliminated
