Nikolai Senninger Eliminated in Third Place (£285,000)
Oct 07, '09
Nikolai Senninger raises to 275,000 from the button and Aaron Gustavson reraises to 800,000 in the small blind. It’s 525,000 more for Senninger to call, and he does.
The flop is dealt Q 7 3 and Gustavson bets 1,140,000 in chips. Senninger calls without much hesitation and the turn is the 9. Gustavson thinks for a few moments and then verbally commits, “I’m all in,” he says and then looks back down at the felt, eyebrows raised.
Senninger goes into that dark and lonely tank, and shuffles his chips as he considers the call. The pot is worth 10 million at this point and Senninger silently thinks about it. He eventually decides to call and the two turn over their cards.
Senninger shows 8 8 and Gustavson shows Q 10
.
The river is the 10 and Senninger (and his lucky charm, Simba the Lion) go out in third place. Senninger gets £285,000 for his efforts and we are now heads up.
