Mao Loses Short Stack
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Shortly after losing with aces against aces, Renji Mao moved his last 110,000 into the middle. Mao immediately found protection from Tony Sinishtaj, who three-bet to 230,000. The rest of the table folded, leaving Mao at risk heads-up.
Renji Mao: K♠Q♠J♣4♦ 
Tony Sinishtaj: A♠A♦6♣4♣
Mao smirked as he saw Sinishtaj catch a set on the 3♦7♠A♣ flop, improving to a full house on the 3♥ turn. The dealer completed the board with the 8♠ river, sending Mao to the rail in 21st place.
