Justin Kusumowidagdo Eliminated in 6th Place ($55,715)
John Racener opened from under the gun and action folded around to Shyamsundar Challa on the button who three-bet. Justin Kusumowidagdo came in with the cold four-bet out of the small blind while things got even spicier after Chad Eveslage put in a five-bet in the big blind. Racener quickly vacated the pot but both Challa and Kusumowidagdo called to generate a large pot heading to the flop.
Kusumowidagdo moved all in on the 2?7?7? flop for less than a bet. Eveslage and Challa each wagered one bet to put Kusumowidagdo at risk and get action going on the side.
Eveslage continued to pump up the pot on the 2? turn. Challa was still not going anywhere, instead making the call.
The J? river saw Eveslage get one last bet paid off by Challa as he tabled K?K? for a winner, with Challa holding 9?9?. Kusumowidagdo, meanwhile, could only muster an ace-high hand to bring his deep run to a close in 6th place.
