Tasaka Out

The Jay Huxley steamroll express has claimed another victim. This time it was APPT Seoul champion Yoshihiro Tasaka. On the river of a {K-Clubs} {5-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} board, Huxley put Tasaka all in. Tasaka tanked for three minutes, letting the tournament clock run all the way down to the dinner break, before calling his last 8,500 with {A-?} {10-?}. Huxley turned over {8-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}, having made trip fives. He dragged the pot to increase his tournament-leading chip stack to 120,000.
