The Defending Champion is Gone
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Takuya Yamashita has had a decent last half an hour, coming from a half-average stack to now just over the average. The cards had already been rushed away and defending champion Thanh Ha Duong had the button in front of him but no chips anymore, biting into a sandwich.
According to the table, the Japanese min-raised from middle position and Duong three-bet shoved out of the blinds for what looked like 15 big blinds. Yamashita wasted little time to make the call with pocket kings and the Vietnamese's pocket sevens found no help on a dry board.
