Baumann Takes Out Sengphet
Level 16
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Paul Nhieu opened to 25,000 from early position and was called by Michael Baumann in the hijack and Kelli Mix in the cutoff. In the small blind, La Sengphet announced all in for her 163,000 stack. Nhieu took some time before he folded. Baumann rejammed and Mix folded.
La Sengphet: A♥8♥
Michael Baumann: K♥Q♠
"Time to play the Seniors tournament!" Sengphet joked as she placed her stacks into the middle.
She held the small lead until the K♣10♠2♥. The J♥ turn gave Sengphet the nut flush draw, but the J♠ bricked off on the river, leaving Baumann's pair of kings best to score the elimination.
