Desai Surges Past a Million
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jonathan Brown opened from the cutoff and Ashraf Desai shoved from the small blind with a much bigger stack. When it got back to Brown, he called off his stack of around 200,000.
Jonathan Brown: A♦10♦
Ashraf Desai: 6♥6♦
Brown was flipping for his tournament life and may have momentarily felt relieved after seeing an ace hit the 6♠A♥Q♥ flop, but he soon realized Desai spiked a set. The J♥ turn did give Brown some outs, but the 8♠ river was a brick.
