Fourie Loses Balls; Poonhath Wins Chips
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
"I have lost my balls!" Rudolf Fourie loudly exclaimed when he bolted away from the table. He had folded preflop when a shorter stacked Hadar Goren was all-in with with 8?8? against the 10?10? of Rajeev Poonhath, who remained ahead all the way on the A?A?4?7?5? runout.
Apparently, Goren had already been eliminated by Poonhath earlier today only to re-enter and meet his nemesis again.
