After Artem Metalidi opens to 80,000 in early position, Al-Farouk Obe three-bets from the button to 250,000, leaving himself 25,000 behind as play is currently on a $3,100 payjump.
Metalidi moves all in and Obe uses his remaining time banks in hopes of sneaking past the payjump, but before time runs out on him, he commits his final chips.
Al-Farouk Obe:
Artem Metalidi:
Obe is in great shape to double up and survive through the payjump until the flop comes , pairing Metalidi’s king.
The board completes bringing no help to Obe who is eliminated without the extra money in his pocket.
Artem Metalidi – 1,550,000
Al-Farouk Obe – eliminated
