Bracelet-Winner Sushant in the Field
Level 4
: 100/200, 200 ante
Aditya Sushant made history alongside Nipun Java when they became the first Indian-born bracelet winners in WSOP history last year when they took down Event #10: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Tag Team for $75,319.
He's now jumped in the WPT India Main Event and is seated next to chip leader Masha Soboleva.
On a 
board with not so much in the pot, Soboleva checked to Sushant who bet 10,000. Soboleva check-raised all in.
"I don't know why I bet 10,000," said Sushant before folding. Soboleva showed 
and took down the pot with her full house.

Soboleva Chip Leader
Level 4
: 100/200, 200 ante
Masha Soboleva has emerged as the chip leader at the start of Level 4. She sits with around 100,000 in chips, no doubt down to some shrewd play in the early levels.
At her table a player opened to 1,200 from early position and Soboleva called in the cutoff. The flop came 
and the initial raiser continued for 1,500. Soboleva open-folded 
to the surprise of her opponent and tablemates.
The other player took down the pot and turned over 
for a better pair of aces.
