Waki Bubbles the EPT Main Event in Horrible Fashion

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Yasuhiro Waki

Ryhor Karapanau opened to 10,000 in early position and Yasuhiro Waki shoved all in for 37,000 in the big blind. Karapanau asked for a count before making the call.

Yasuhiro Waki: AA
Ryhor Karapanau: QJ

"I'm the winner," Waki let the audience know before the cards were tabled. The dealer fanned the flop of AQ4 to give Waki a set of aces but Karapanau picked up a pair and a flush draw.

The 5 on the turn was a brick but the 2 on the river gave Karapanau a flush. Waki was left with his head in his hands as he walked away disappointed and empty-handed.
