Nawa Hits the Rail
Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Petr Kubenka opened from under the gun to 35,000 and was called by Jon Kyte (middle position), Eros Calderone (hijack) and Antonios Poziadis (button).
Hiroki Nawa, in the small blind, then went deep into the tank. Over five minutes had passed until the clock was called and as the tournament director appoached the table, Nawa jammed for 204,000.
Kubenka snap-called but then instantly folded after Kyte rejammed. Action folded round and Nawa was at risk.
Hiroki Nawa: 
Jon Kyte: 
Kubenka said he folded ace-king, which gave Nawa a little more hope. That hope quickly vanished as he was eliminated after the 
runout.
