Sangha Runs into Rockets

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Harrison Ashdown opened to 100,000 from the button and Harsukhpaul Sangha moved all in from the small blind for approximately 540,000. Christian Harder moved all in from the big blind and Ashdown opted to fold, leaving Sangha at risk against Harder.

Harsukhpaul Sangha: AQ
Christian Harder: AA

Sangha was in dire straits against the preflop nuts. He did catch a pair on the JQ9 flop but failed to improve further on the 5 turn and 5 river, resulting in his elimination while Harder took down a sizable pot.

Cooler Flop, Colder Turn

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

On a flop of 523, Kenny Huynh bet about the size of the pot before calling off the all in of Yuchung Chang.

Kenny Huynh: AQ
Yuchung Chang: K5

Chang had flopped top pair and Huynh had overcards to go with his nut flush draw.

The turn was the A, pulling Huynh back in the lead but it also gave Chang the other nut flush draw. The river changed nothing with the 9 and Chang was left with just 60,000 behind after the altercation.

Chang was seen leaving the tournament area shortly after.

Yuliyan Kolev
Yuliyan Kolev

Yuliyan Kolev moved all in from the hijack for 250,000 and Alex Keating raised all in from the small blind with a covering stack.

Yuliyan Kolev: AK
Alex Keating: 88

It was a classic preflop flip but the 58Q flop gave Keating a set and left Kolev drawing nearly dead. The K turn left Kolev with no outs and after the 3 came on the river Kolev's deep run came to an end while Keating scooped another pot.

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mark Seif
Mark Seif

Mark Seif moved all in from the cutoff for his last 125,000 and was called by Daniel Palau in the big blind who covered him.

Mark Seif: K10
Daniel Palau: 108

Seif was in great shape to double up with a bigger ten but Palau picked up a plethora of outs on the A97 flop. The 4 turn was a brick but Palau hit a pair on the 8 river to send Seif to the rail and take down a decent pot.
