Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

James Mendoza

James Mendoza opened to 25,000 from under the gun and was three-bet to 81,000 by Ami Barer in the big blind. Mendoza called.

Mendoza called a 37,000 bet from Barer on the JJ5 flop and then shoved over an 88,000 bet from Barer on the 3 turn. Barer committed the rest of his stack into the middle and hands were revealed.

Ami Barer: AAAll in
James Mendoza: KQ

Mendoza had turned a flush and Barer was drawing slim to a full house.

The 3 river bricked out for Barer and he was eliminated with a half hour to go in Day 1.
