Strobel Cracks Two Premiums; Daher Falls to Byrraju
Rahul Byrraju had been telling the table about his limping strategy and then put it to use as he limped from under the gun. Albert Daher then raised the cutoff and Albert Daher shoved 645,000 from the button. Byrraju had his stack of around 2,200,000 in there, and Daher completed the party to make it a three-way all-in!
Adrian Strobel: K♦Q♦ 
Albert Daher: K♥K♣
Rahul Byrraju: A♥A♣
That limped strategy looked to have paid off big time as Byrraju got his chips in good and was a clean runout away from a monstrous stack late in the day.
However, it was Strobel that had a chance to survive as the 2♦3♦3♣ flop gave him a flush draw, which he quickly completed on the 9♦ turn. Nothing changed on the 9♠ river, which meant Strobel tripled up and Daher was out as Byrraju took the side pot.
