Jared Ward
Jared Ward

Jared Ward opened from middle position to 800, Ankit Ahuja called from the button, and Cesar Del Pino bumped the price of admission to 3,600 from the small blind. The other two players called.

Slightly over 15,000 in the middle as these players saw a flop of 754. Del Pino fired a bet of 4,200 after quite a bit of deliberation. Both players called once again.

The 2 on the turn was followed by a 19,200 chip bet from Del Pino, putting himself at risk.

No complaints from Ward, who raised for all of his chips as well. Ahuja released.

Jared Ward: 77
Cesar Del Pino: AQx All in

Unfortunately for Del Pino, he was drawing very slim and was more than likely going to the rail versus Ward's top set, unless a 3x was the river card.

It was not, and Ward concluded the tournament for Del Pino.
