Saizan Puts a Dent in Lococo's Hopes to Continue His Streak of Deep Main Event Runs
Level 5
: 300/600, 600 ante
From a few tables away, Ugur Secilmis and Alejandro Lococo watched as the projection screens showed them at the final table of the 2021 Main Event.
Perhaps inspired by his deep run, Lococo called from the button when Michael Saizan went all in for 9,500 in the big blind.
Michael Saizan: A♣A♦
Alejandro Lococo: A♠5♠
Lococo swore when he saw what he had walked into. The K♣J♠K♥ flop opened up some back door opportunities for Papo MC, but when the 9♦ hit the turn he had already started moving his 9,500 toward Saizan. The Q♠ gave Saizan the full double.
