Murata Sends Huang Home
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Short-stacked Chung-Lin Huang moved all in from middle position for 16,400. Masayuki Murata sat in the next seat, thought for a while, and made the call. Kimberly Manley sat in the hijack, then put in a three-bet to 62,500. Action came back around to Murata, who flat-called.
The action went check, check, on the 5♣3♣K♠ flop for the players to see the 6♦ peel off on the turn. Murata led out for 31,000, and Manley made the call.
On the Q♠ river, Murata moved all in and had Manley covered, who quickly folded her hand, showing J♠J♦, which was the correct fold as Murata tabled K♥K♣, and had both Manley and Huang with Ax10x crushed, sending Huang to the rail.
