Kihara Among First to Fall in the Money
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Naoya Kihara got his short stack into the middle with the Q?J?9?6? when the action resumed and he was up against Austin Apicella with the A?A?Q?8?.
The board ran out 8?3?3?7?7? and that spelled the end for Kihara. Shortly after, Ryan Leng also yelled "payout" after he had busted from a table nearby.
In the meanwhile, Huilin Chen was all-in for 3,000 and Corey Wright for just 4,000. They both survived against Marco Johnson to potentially make for a fantastic chip and a chair comeback story.
