Howard Feingold

Saber Salum Penayo opened the action from early position, picked up one caller, and Howard Feingold shipped for 375,000 from the big blind. Salum Penayo called to surprise Feingold.

“I didn’t know you were in the hand,” Feinfold said. “I made a mistake.”

The other player folded and the hands were flipped up.

Salum Penayo: 8s8c
Feingold: Ah3h

Feingold was dominated but paired his ace on the AcTc2d flop to take the lead.

“Made a mistake and going to win!” Feingold celebrated.

The turn was the 2c and Feingold sat back down, staring at the club draw. The 6c river finished the board, Salum Penayo made a club flush, and Feingold was eliminated.

“Made a mistake and I lost!” Feingold said as he was collecting his payout card.

Saber Salum Penayo – 1,615,000 (54 bb)
Howard Feingold – Eliminated in 67th Place ($11,560)
