Event 10: Merivitra Doubles

$2,200 Eight Game Mix (Single Re-Entry)
Level 10: 1,000/2,000 Limits
Game: Omaha/8

Jyri Merivitra began the final table second in chips but most of them disappeared quickly into the stack of Brian Hastings in a No Limit Hold’em hand. He was short but survived Razz until Omaha/8 rolled around.

Merivitra put in a third bet from the small blind after Marcello Costa opened the action. Costa called to get heads up and Merivitra fired bets on the flop and turn until he was all-in with the board reading Ah5h5dAc. Merivitra was looking good with quads AsAd7h6c and needed to dodge 13 chop outs from Costa’s JcJh6s2h.

The river was a blank Kh to give Costa the scoop and double.
