Wei Wins Big Pot
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
A series of raises bounced around between Phua Wei in the hijack and Sean Rosenthal in the cutoff. The bidding war culminated in an all-in from Wei for 815,000, which was called by Rosenthal for less, who was at risk for 530,000.
Sean Rosenthal: A♣K♣
Phua Wei: K♠K♥
Rosenthal held the best drawing hand in the game, but Wei's pocket kings were not an ideal opponent for Rosenthal's holding.
Rosenthal found no solace when the board spread out 4♥9♠9♦5♣9♣ to give Wei a full house and send Rosenthal out of the tournament.
