Lipauka Eliminated by Knoepfer's Runner-Runner Straight
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
All the chips went into the middle preflop with Vadzim Lipauka on the button at risk for 33,500. They were up against Michel Knoepfer in the big blind.
Vadzim Lipauka: A?Q?
Michel Knoepfer: A?10?
Lipauka was ahead and the flop of J?7?6? looked pretty safe for the Belorussian. But Knoepfer went runner-runner after the 8?9? completed the board to give him the straight to end Lipauka's tournament.
