Suriyakarn Drills the River to Bust Maarex
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
With a stack of about half a million, Elisha Maarex came in for a raise to 60,000 from the hijack and Sorawit Suriyakarn jammed from the big blind, putting Maarex all in. Maarex snap-called to put his tournament life on the line.
Elisha Maarex: K♠K♣
Sorawit Suriyakarn: A♠K♦
It was a cooler that Maarex found himself on the right side of, and his pocket kings stayed best through the 2♥5♦10♦ flop and 7♦ turn.
The dealer burned a card and put out the brutal A♣ river, sending Maarex to the rail while Suriyakarn's stack climbed to over a million.
