Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante
Tong Li
Tong Li

With 17,000 in the middle on a flop of {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} the small blind bet 7,000 and was met with an all-in from recent WSOP Gold Bracelet winner Tong Li on the button. The small blind called for 13,500 total.

Small Blind: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Tong Li: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{2-Clubs}

Li flopped Broadway and had the backup of the royal flush draw. The small blind needed the board to pair to win or a king to chop the pot. Neither came as the board fell {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} to send the small blind to the exit.

The big blind called fairly quickly and Kornuth happily showed {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for flopped quads.
