Oataway raised it up preflop to 450 from early position, and found two callers in the hijack and button positions, before the big blind popped it up to 1,600 to play. Oataway moved his last chips into the middle but was called by the player in the hijack.
Oataway tabled pocket queens but the hijack revealed a deceptive pocket kings. The board bricked out and Oataway was eliminated.

"Good game," Grigg muttered before heading out the door. Beluli is now on 35,000.
