Event 31 – Final Table – Justin Filtz Felted (Third), Heads-up Begins
1 year ago
In the last hour of play we’ve seen Dario Minieri’s stack go up and down like a rollercoaster (so nothing new there) and the eventual elimination of Justin Filtz in what you might call a bad beat.
In the fateful hand Filtz pushed all-in and Seth Fischer quickly called. Filtz stood up and gave a victorious fist-pump, which could only mean one thing – the dreaded pocket rockets.
In fact, the players flipped over:
Filtz: A
A
Fischer: A
K
Fischer would need a miracle as we headed to the board. The flop came K
J
9
which gave Fischer a few more outs. Suddenly Filtz wasn’t smiling quite as much. The tension in the room was palpable as the dealer turned… K
!
The Fischer supporters went crazy while Filtz could only give a weak smile at his bad fortune. The river came J
and sealed the deal.
Fischer moves on to heads-up play while Filtz moves on to the rail. He will receive $214,139 for coming in third.
Heads-up Battle Royale!
