Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
An opponent moved all in with 17,000 from the hijack and action folded around to Bogdan Munteanu who defended the big blind.
Hijack: A?Q?
Bogdan Munteanu: 10?2?
The hijack was looking strong but the J?J?10? flop swayed things in Munteanu's favor.
The 5? 8? runout kept Munteanu ahead with two pair, and the hijack was eliminated from the tournament with around 280 players remaining.
