Maricuta Knocks Out Vogrinec

Livello 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Joining the action on the K♥9♦2♥9♣ turn, Matjaz Vogrinec checked and subsequently reluctantly called a bet worth 45,000 by Dan Maricuta. That led them to the 2♣ river on which Vogrinec checked again from under the gun. Maricuta pushed all-in for his opponent to ask for a count, which turned out to be for 86,400 total.

Vogrinec called all-in after a minute and then tried to muck his cards when Maricuta tabled the J♥9♥ for nines full of deuces.

"Showdown," Maricuta demanded and the dealer flipped over the A♦10♦ of Vogrinec, who left the tournament seconds later.
