Orman Wins a Flip, Tuna Misses an Opportunity
Akin Tuna just made a fold that he wasn't too pleased about as he would have eliminated two opponents!
Tuna made it 12,000 to go from early position and Ori Elul called in the next seat before Leonid Orman squeezed from the big blind to 62,000. Tuna made the call, then Elul back-raised all in for 254,000. Orman called off his stack of 210,000, and Tuna made a reluctant fold.
Leonid Orman: A♠K♠ 
Ori Elul: J♠J♣
Orman was at risk and behind, needing to find some help from the board in order to survive. He didn't find it on the 6♥3♥9♠ flop, but Tuna seemed unimpressed as he said he folded pocket nines and would have flopped a set. Salvation did arrive for Orman on the K♥ turn as he made top pair, and Elul couldn't find his two-outer when the 8♥ dropped on the river.
