Jun Obara Eliminated in 4th Place ($879,939)
Level 28
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Khoi Le Nguyen jammed the small blind covering and Jun Obara quickly called from the big blind for his final 5,800,000.
Jun Obara: A♠7♥
Khoi Le Nguyen: K♠10♣
Obara was the slight favorite to double until the 10♦9♣4♣ flop paired Nguyen's ten. The 8♥ turn gave Obara an open-ender, but the Q♠ completed the board as Obara was left with ace-high, and he exited in fourth with a smile on his face, with an additional $879,939 consolation prize.
