Tardif Eliminates One as Bubble Looms
Patrick Tardif raised to 13,000 from middle position and the player in the big blind made the call. On the K♥8♣8♠ flop, Tardif continued for 8,000 and received another call.
The turn came the J♥ and Tardif upped the ante to a massive overbet of 45,000. Once again, the big blind check-called.
The river 4♠ completed the board and the big blind checked for the third time. This time, Tardif threw enough T-25,000 chips in the middle to put the big blind's stack of 105,000 all in.
The big blind thought for a while and eventually tossed in the call for his tournament life. Tardif tabled A♦K♣ for two pair, and that was the winner when the big blind showed K♦7♦ for the same two pair but with a worse kicker.
The big blind was eliminated and Tardif won a big pot around the bubble.
