Jun Obara Eliminated in 15th Place ($108,800)
Level 25
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Ivan Luca opened to 600,000 in early position and Jun Obara three-bet to 3,000,000 from the cutoff before Arunas Sapitavicius four-bet jammed a stack of around 5,500,000 from the small blind.
Luca then five-bet jammed behind him as Obara called off for around 600,000 more.
Jun Obara: Q♦Q♥
Arunas Sapitavicius: J♣J♦
Ivan Luca: A♣A♥
Luca was a favorite to score a double knockout before a jack in the window on the flop of 7♦3♠J♣ gave Sapitavicius a big lead. Sapitavicius improved to a boat on the 3♥9♦ runout as Obara was eliminated.
