Bryan Nakamura and taisyo Eliminated
Level 29
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
At almost the same time, there were two all-in and call and both shorter stacks busted.
Bryan Nakamura was all-in and in dire need of help with the K♥7♥. Kanasuke had the A♥K♠ and neither player connected with the J♦9♣5♠8♣Q♦ board as Nakamura had to settle for 14th place worth $1,618 in JOPT contracts.
Day 1a chip leader taisyo was the next casualty when he three-bet jammed with A♦10♦ into the A♠K♣ of mashipi and couldn't hit anything. Before the start of the day, taisyo had said he "will do his best" and certainly diud so with a deep run in 13th place for $1,876 in JOPT contracts.
