O'Shea Eliminated by Kakon
Level 16
: 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
William Kakon raised to 26,000, and both James Calderaro and Dario Sammartino called. John O'Shea raised the pot to 145,000, and Kakon asked for his remaining stack, which was another 171,000 behind. Kakon then moved all in, and that forced Calderaro and Sammartino out.
"I call," O'Shea said and immediately asked, "You got aces?" Kakon nodded.
John O'Shea: 
William Kakon: 
While Kakon was way ahead, the 
flop gave O'Shea a flush draw. After the 
turn, Kakon demanded, "Pair the board," and while his wish wasn't granted, he was also quite happy about the 
. O'Shea was covered by six big blinds and joined the rail, while Kakon scored a vital double.
