John Pannucci Eliminated in 6th Place ($224,034)
Level 28
: Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha
Ben Lamb raised to 560,000 in the hijack, which Chongxian Yang called in the cutoff. John Pannucci then raised the pot to 2,600,000, leaving 530,000 chips back.
Lamb quickly moved all in, covering Yang's 5,730,000. Yang spent some time in the tank but eventually made a reluctant fold, revealing the other players' cards.
John Pannucci: K♥10♥9♦6♦
Ben Lamb: A♦A♣5♦3♦
Pannucci flopped best on 9♣10♦2♦, and his two pair remained ahead on the 3♠ turn. The 8♦ river gave Lamb the nut flush, however, eliminating Pannuci in sixth place and growing Lamb's lead to enormous proportions.
