Thomas Zanot Eliminated in 12th Place ($15,700)
Level 28
: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Dan Matsuzuki raised on the button to 275,000 and was jammed on by the small blind, Thomas Zanot, for 800,000. Matsuzuk quickly made the call and cards were on their backs.
Thomas Zanot: A♣Q♥9♣9♥
Dan Matsuzuki: A♠A♥9♠4♠
The flop fanned out 5♠6♠4♥ and when the 3♠ fell on the turn, so did Zanot's hopes in making the final table. He remained good natured and was heard multiple times throughout the tournament saying how fun PLO tournaments are here at the WSOP.
Matsuzuki was dealt aces three out of the first four hands he played and eliminated two players with them. To say he's off to a hot start would be an understatement.
