Agarwal Hero Calls for Tournament Life; Yunis Exits
After checking through the 6♦Q♦K♠4♣ turn, Anuj Agarwal and Mike Vanier saw the river fall the 7♦.
Agarwal was first to act and he bet 125,000 into the pot of around 400,000 but then Vanier shoved all in, covering his opponent.
Agarwal then went deep into the tank, using all six of his time banks for this decision. As he reached the end of his clock, he set out a stack of chips and made the call, putting himself at risk.
Vanier did not like this call and flipped over J♣10♣ for a missed straight draw and jack-high, to which Agarwla jumped up and proudly flipped over K♣9♣ for just a pair of kings to win the massive pot.
Meanwhile, across the room, Nick Yunis was eliminated by Erfan Geula when his ace-ten couldn't improve against Geula's ace-queen.
