Monro Sent Home By Kihara, the Unstoppable Force

Naoya Kihara is having some day, and just eliminated Joe Monro. The pot saw his stack break the million mark and now has more chips than the average player will have at tomorrow's final table!

All the chips between him and Monro went in on a {4-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Hearts} flop, and the cards were flipped up.

Kihara: {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}{a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for bottom set.
Monro: {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} for straight and flush draws.

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to miss all the draws.
