Erick Torres

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Eric Wasserson raised to 240,000 on the button before Sean Winter elected to jam for 1,140,000 from the big blind. Wasserson wasted no time calling to put Winter at risk.

Sean Winter: K♥Q♥ All in
Eric Wasserson: A♠K♣

Winter needed help as his hand was dominated by the Big Slick of Wasserson.

The flop gave Winter some straight outs as it fanned out 10♦5♥A♣.

The 6♥ brought no relief to Winter, and the 2♠ river was the final card he would see in the tournament as he was eliminated in 8th place.

Winter earned $83,707 for his effort.
