Sarwer Takes Out Ullereng, Fan Folds the Winner
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Ding Fan raised to 30,000 under the gun and Jeffrey Sarwer called in the hijack. Mats Ullereng then moved all in for 165,000 in the big blind and Fan reraised to 300,000.
Ullereng turned over his A♥9♠ before Sarwer had a chance to act, and a tournament official had to be called over. It was ruled that Ullereng's hand would remain exposed, and Sarwer then reshoved. Fan quickly folded, saying he had two sixes.
Mats Ullereng: A♥9♠
Jeffrey Sarwer: A♣K♣
The 10♠10♣3♦ flop left open the possibility of a chop, while the turn was the 4♦. The 2♥ river kept Sarwer in the lead with his king-kicker, and Ullereng was sent to the rail.
