Hikosaka Cleaning Up

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Kosei Ichinose
Kosei Ichinose

Florencio Campomanes confirmed the eliminations of Kosei Ichinose and Henrik Tollefsen, both sent their chips to Keisuke Hikosaka. The Norwegian three-bet shoved his short stack and received two callers including the Japanese before the active players checked down a {10-}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{X-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} board. Tollefsen's {K-Spades}{Q-Spades} ended up second-best to the {8-Diamonds}{8-} of Hikosaka.

And then, there was an open raise and a flat-call before the PokerStars Team Pro got his 19,000 chips in with the {A-}{Q-} to lose a flip versus pocket jacks. It was somewhat cruel as Hikosaka had flopped a full house and Ichinose was given a worthless straight on the turn to rub it in.
