Carlos Saucedo Eliminated in 14th Place ($15,782)
Level 38
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Carlos Saucedo shoved his short stack of 1,500,000 from the button, and Mukul Pahuja wasted no time jamming over the top from the small blind with a much larger stack. The rest of the table quickly stepped aside to let the showdown unfold.
Carlos Saucedo: A♣6♣
Mukul Pahuja: J♣10♥
The board came out with J♦Q♥10♦3♦7♠, and Pahuja won with a pair of jacks.
Saucedo went on a wild run in this tournament—at one point reduced to a single red 5,000 chip, he spun it up with grit and guts to a remarkable 14th-place finish.
