Li Doubles and Leaves Raviv Short
Level 3
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Chance Kornuth opened to 2,800 from under the gun, and Anatoly Zlotnikov raised to 8,600 from early position. Ze Yu Li moved all in for his remaining 26,500 from middle position, and action folded around to Idan Raviv in the big blind, who re-jammed for around 70,000.
Kornuth and Zlotnikov folded, leaving the players to go heads-up to showdown.
Ze Yu Li: K♠9♦7♠6♥
Idan Raviv: A♣A♥Q♣10♥
Li needed to hit to stay alive, but Raviv was sitting strong with aces.
The 2♠J♠10♦ flop was good for Li as he picked up straight and flush draws. Raviv paired his ten and had a gutshot to Broadway.
The 6♠ turn put Li in the lead with the spade flush, and he held on the J♥ river to remain in the tournament.
