Ohana Eliminates Yum

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Mihael Jeraj raised to 4,500 from the under-the-gun position and was called by Yum on the button. Shlomo Ohana, in the small blind, shoved for around 159,000 having both of his opponents covered. Jeraj asked for a count even though he was clearly covered. The dealer started counting and then Jeraj folded. Yum considered his option for a few seconds and then called.

Shlomo Ohana: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Yum: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} - Ohana loudly cheered causing him to lose part of his sunglasses, turning them into normal glasses and sat down again. Yum grabbed his coat and quickly left the table. The dealer pushed Yum's chips to Ohana and Ohana threw a 5,000-value chip to the dealer.

"For you!" Ohana said to the dealer. The dealer pushed the chip back to Ohana with a smile.
