Browne Finishes Off Ilani

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Paul Browne
Paul Browne

Paul Browne raised to 22,000 from early position and was called by a player in middle position and Ran Ilani in the big blind.

The flop came {8-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and Ilani open-shoved for around 80,000. Browne asked for a count before he announced a call, while the middle position player folded.

Ran Ilani: {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Paul Browne: {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Ilani was ahead with his pair of eights, while Browne had a straight draw. The {k-Hearts} on the turn gave Browne a pair of kings and left Ilani looking for help on the river, which didn't come as the dealer turned over the {3-Spades}.

Ilani gave his former tablemates a fist pump and wished them good luck on his way to the exit while Browne raked in the pot.
