Rex Hsu Eliminated in 22nd Place (ZAR34,400)
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Taariq Jaftha opened to 55,000 with the A♣K♣ in an early position and Sean Bloom called in the cutoff with the A♦4♦. Rex Hsu came along on the button with the K♦2♠ and Keenan Pienaar then three-bet with the largest stack of them all in the big blind with 8♣6♣.
Jaftha moved all-in and everyone else folded.
Soon after that, Hsu was down to fumes and jammed the cutoff with the 9♠7♠, Pienaar called with the K♠J♣ in the small blind.
Both had a piece of the 7♣3♣3♠K♣2♥ board and Hsu bowed out in 22nd place for ZAR34,400 ($1,892)
