Zhen Cai Eliminated in 2nd Place ($156,773)
Level 36
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo
William Leffingwell raised to 500,000 and Zhen Cai called.
The flop came A♦3♣J♣ and Cai led out with a pot-size bet of 1,200,000, leaving 400,000 behind. Leffingwell moved all in and Cai committed his last chips.
Zhen Cai: A♥K♥9♠5♥
William Leffingwell: Q♣J♥5♠2♣
"Four," Leffingwell called out to his rail as he held up four fingers and stood up from his seat. The 10♥ came on the turn, and Leffingwell now began calling for a king.
He got his wish as the dealer turned over the K♣, completing his straight as he ran over to celebrate with his supporters while Cai had to settle for a runner-up finish.
