Michael Kanaan Eliminated in 4th Place (PHP 1,592,000)

Michael Kanaan - 4th Place
Michael Kanaan - 4th Place

Michael Kanaan's hopes of becoming just the third person ever to win both an ANZPT title and an APPT title has just come to an end.

It started when Nicholas Wong opened it up to 65,000 from under the gun. Michael Kanaan was in the small blind and jammed all in for a touch over 500,000. Wong got out of his chair and studied the whole table. He wanted to know how much his two other competitors had before making his decision. Eventually he got all the information he needed and would make the call.

Wong: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Kanaan: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The {8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop was a safe one for Kanaan, but the {a-Spades} on the turn was deadly. The {q-Hearts} on the river completed the board and poured salt in Kanaan's wound as he goes home in 4th place.
