BATB Event #14 ($1,500 NLH Championship): Uri Kadosh Gets Boost To Title Defense

2018 Battles At The Beach
Event #14 | $1,500 NLH Championship ($500,000 GTD)

Level 16 (Blinds 2,500/5,000/500) | Structure
Total Entries: 433
Players Remaining: 62

Uri Kadosh (David, FL) is looking to become the first player to successfully defend their Battles At The Beach championship title.

In defense of his 2017 Battles At The Beach championship title, Uri Kadosh (Davie, FL) bagged just over 138,000 for today's Day 2.  Kadosh had been fairly quiet for most of the day, managing to keep his stack right around the number he started with.  Uri's table was approached moments ago, just as he shoved all-in (for 133,500), on the turn of a board reading J 10 7 6.  His opponent, who held a similar sized stack, took off his headphones to assess the situation.  The unknown player said something under his breath (along the lines of "I didn't come here to sit around", before verbalizing a call.  The dealer confirmed that Kadosh in fact did go all-in, and the hands were tabled:

Kadosh: A♠ J♠
Player X: A K

River: 8

Kadosh was ahead with his pair of jacks, but needed to fade a number of cards on the river.  The red card on the river was a little sweat, but it would lock up the hand for Uri, who ended up eliminating his opponent.

Uri Kadosh - 370,000 (74bb)
