Championship Flight A: Alexander Villa Goes Runner-Runner On Ray Qartomy

$3,500 Seminole Hard Rock RRPO Championship 
Level 8: 300/600 with a 75 ante
Players Remaining: 198 of 339

Ray Qartomy raised to 1,600 from the hijack and the player on the button called. Alexander Villa three-bet to 7,300 out of the small blind and Qartomy called.

The button folded and Qartomy called. They were heads-up to a flop of Kc6h4d and Villa bet 7,500.

Qartomy called and the turn was the 9c. Villa bet 15,000 and Qartomy called. The river was the Jd and Villa bet 35,000. Qartomy snap-called and Villa showed QdTc, good for the nut straight.

Qartomy let out a sigh and bemoaned some of his bad luck as he sent 4s4h face-up into the muck. Villa took the pot and is one of the bigger stacks heading on a 15-minute break.

Alexander Villa – 165,000
Ray Qartomy – 34,000
