First Hand Back - First Player Out

Motoyuki Mabuchi
Motoyuki Mabuchi
That was so quick we didn't even catch the preflop action. We do know that Motoyuki Mabuchi got all in with Robert Cheung. Moto showed {A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} while Cheung had {6-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}.

Mabuchi flopped the gutshot straight draw when the board came {9-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}, and he picked up more outs when the {7-Clubs} hit the turn. The river was unkind though, putting the {J-Diamonds} on the board and giving Mabuchi top pair, which couldn't beat Cheung's flush.
