Nikham Eliminates One

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

A player moved all in for 8,600 from first position which saw Nicky Nikham call in the cutoff and another player called in the big blind.

The flop rolled off {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and action checked to Nikham who moved all in which saw the big blind frustratingly fold his {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. "I'm drawing dead," the at risk player said before the hands were turned over.

Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Nicky Nikham: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The runout of {3-Hearts}{4-Clubs} gave no improvement to the ace-ten and Nikham took down a sizable pot.

At another table, La Sengphet was eliminated from the tournament.
