Ori Mendi Eliminated in 3rd Place ($147,184)
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Ori Mendi moved all in for 3,650,000 from the button, and Rob Wazwaz folded from the small blind. Joshua Boulton was in the big and asked for an exact count before spiking in a call.
Ori Mendi: A♥K♥
Joshua Boulton: 9♣9♥
It was a big flip, and Mendi was looking to improve to stay alive. That didn't happen on the 4♥Q♠2♠ flop, but the Q♥ turn gave him plenty of outs with a flush draw to go with his two overs.
He had one more pull at it, but unfortunately for Mendi, the 6♠ river was a brick to send him out the door in third place.
