Rob Toleafoa - 17th Place
Rob Toleafoa - 17th Place
Preflop, Michael Shinzaki opened to 20,000 from under the gun and Rob Toleafoa called from the blinds.

They took a {6-Hearts}{2-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop and Toleafoa checked. Shinzaki bet out 37,000 with Toleafoa calling.

The turn was the {a-Spades} and Toleafoa took the lead firing 60,000. Shinzaki flat called. When the river fell of the {k-Clubs} Toleafoa moved all in for around 160,000 chips and after going into the tank Shinzaki called.

Toleafoa tabled {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for top pair, but Shinzaki had a bigger top pair rolling over {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts} with his ten kicker playing.

Toleafoa goes out in 17th and we're down to two tables left. Michael Shinzaki moves into the chiplead.
