Khun Advances, Quarterfinals are Set
Level 35
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
The blinds had just increased once again, leaving Gabor Szabo with just over 10 big blinds. Chanracy Khun shipped all in on the button and Szabo called off his stack of around 440,000.
Gabor Szabo: A♥7♦
Chanracy Khun: 10♣9♣
The flop came Q♥J♥J♦ and Khun picked up a straight draw to go with his two live cards. The K♠ hit the turn to give Khun a straight but Szabo wasn't drawing dead yet. However, the 8♣ on the river was a brick and Khun earned the victory. The quarterfinal matchups will take place at 5:00 p.m. local time on the outer feature tables inside the Horseshoe Casino.
