Rubin Chips Up from Greenblatt
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Alexander Greenblatt was sitting under the gun and in a hand with Antony Rubin in middle position. The 4♠3♠6♠ flop was already face up, and the betting had accumulated into a 450,000 pot.
Greenblatt had moved all in, and Rubin made the call, putting himself at risk for his last 1,615,000.
Antony Rubin: 7♣7♠
Alexander Greenblatt: A♠K♦
Rubin was ahead with a pair of sevens, but Greenblatt had plenty to hunt with two overs, the nut flush draw and the backdoor straight.
A 2♦ turn saw Greenblatt get closer to the steal, but he missed on the 9♥ river, and passed a chunk of his stack across to Rubin.
