Ko Flops the Nuts and Eliminates Castro

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Bin Weng

Bin Weng raised to 60,000 in the hijack before Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet to 200,000 in the cutoff.

Weng asked the dealer how much Ponakovs' raise was for and the dealer went to toss him the all-in chip. "I said how much is it," Weng said to a round of laughs from the table.

The dealer confirmed Ponakovs' raise before Weng moved all in for real this time, shoving his last 700,000 into the middle. Ponakovs snap-called.

Bin Weng: A7 All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: AK

Weng found himself dominated as the A65 flop gave both players top pair. The rest of the board came 6Q and Ponakovs' king-kicker played to send Weng to the rail.
