Java Eliminated in Four-Way Pot
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Jim Carroll opened for 22,000 in middle position and saw huge action behind him. Cory Smith made it 70,000 in the cutoff. Lang Nguyen shoved on the button for about 70,000. Nipun Java looked at his holding in the big blind and let out a chuckle. He assessed the situation and then put in his whole stack, 73,500. Caroll and Nguyen called.
The board ran out 
and the two active players checked down. Carroll opened 
and Smith mucked. Nguyen excitedly showed 
for a boat and Java could only shake his head and show 
for the small side pot. Left with just a few thousand, he busted in short order.
