Tsang Eliminates Wasserson in a Robust Pot

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Yan Shing Tsang raised to 42,000 in the cutoff and the action stopped at Eric Wasserson who raised the pot out of the big blind. Tsang matched the 134,000-raise and they went to the {9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop.

Wasserson potted again, making it 276,000 and Tsang pushed all in, covering Wasserson's 400,000 or so. Wasserson put in the rest of his chips.

Tsang: {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Wasserson: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}

Tsang outflopped Wasserson as he hit two pair but Wasserson was still drawing very live. The {8-Diamonds} gave Tsang even better two pair.

The river was the {K-Hearts} and that was Wasserson's swan song in the tournament as he lost the over a 1 million pot to Tsang who boosted his stack to 1.6 million. Wasserson tapped the felt and then headed for the payouts.
