Kihara Eliminated

Level 6

PLO

Action folded around to the button, who raised to 400. Naoya Kihara three-bet to 1,275 from the big blind, and his opponent called.

Kihara continuation-bet on the {5-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop, and his opponent put him all in. Kihara called off his remaining chips.

Kihara: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Opponent: {Q-Spades}{a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Kihara had top pair and a backdoor flush draw, but his opponent was slightly ahead with the nut flush draw and a pair of eights. The turn brought a {4-Hearts}, and the river a {k-Hearts} for good measure, sending Kihara out of the tournament.
