Garcia Scores Elimination
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jose Garcia raised to 12,000 from middle position before the hijack shoved for approximately 58,000. Garcia made the call to put his opponent at risk.
Opponent: A♠8♠
Jose Garcia: A♥K♥
Both players flopped an ace, but Garcia was still best with his kicker on the A♣7♥4♣ flop.
The Q♥ turn helped Garcia as his flush draw took away an out from his opponent, and the 2♣ river sealed the deal as Garcia secured the knockout late on Day 1c.
