Patel Advances to Day 3
Level 23
: 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action was already finished, but Anant Patel was kind enough to recount the hand that punched his ticket to the final table.
After Patel limped in the small blind, Oliver Biles jammed, and Patel snap called.
Oliver Biles: 
Anant Patel: 
Patel was ahead, but with just ace high, that was subject to change. However, no help would come from Biles, as the board bricked out 
. With neither player connecting with any part of the board, Patel's ace high was good enough to win the pot. In doing so, he sent Biles to the rail and punched his ticket to the final table on Day 3 where he will vie for a WSOP bracelet.
