Thai Dinh Eliminated in 2nd Place ($236,740)
Level 46
: Blinds 4,000,000/8,000,000, 8,000,000 ante
Justin Fawcett opened the action with a raise to 16,000,000, which was called by Thai Dinh. The 8♠10♠5♥ flop checked through, bringing in the 3♣ turn. Here, Dinh led out for 17,000,000, and Fawcett flatted.
The dealer peeled off the 9♠ on the river, and Dinh didn't slow down with a bet of 26,000,000. Fawcett took his time, pondered his options, and announced "all in." Dinh could not have called any quicker, with the snappiest of snap calls. Dinh turned over 5♦3♥ for a turned two pair, but Fawcett's rivered straight with 7♠6♥ gave him the win, as the two shared a handshake.
