After a raise to 800 by Denis Gergoc in the cutoff, Florin Mihaila three-bets to 1,900. This prompts a four-bet from Gergoc to 4,700 and a call from Mihaila.

On the Spade 8Spade 7Heart 2 flop, Mihaila check-calls a bet of 1,700 from Gergoc to see the Diamond A turn.

After another check by Mihaila, Gergoc bets 2,500 and Mihaila check-raises to 10,500 which Gergoc calls.

On the Diamond K river, Mihaila moves all in for 16,500 and after some thought, Gergoc calls.

Mihaila stands up ready to leave as he shows his Diamond QDiamond J for queen-high and an ambitious Level 1 bluff gone wrong as a disbelieving Gergoc shows his Heart 10Club 10 for a winning pair of tens to take a huge early pot.

Mihaila has since re-entered the tournament with a fresh 30,000 chips.

Denis Gergoc – 71,000 (355 bb)
Florin Mihaila – 30,000 (150 bb)
