In the last hand of the level, Riku Sasahara open-jammed with the big blind soon approaching. It folded to Nino Pansier in the big blind and he called with even fewer chips.
Nino Pansier: Q?Q?
Riku Sasahara: 6?6?
The superior pair held on the K?3?3?2?2? board and Sasahara was left with fumes.
On new blinds and under the gun, Sasahara jammed for 515,000 from under the gun. Yuanning Wu on the button and Christopher Mateo in the big blind called.
Mateo checked the A?10?9? flop and Wu bet 200,000. Mateo instantly moved all-in and Wu let go.
Riku Sasahara: 8?6?
Christopher Mateo: 10?10?
Sasahara rubbed his hands and asked for a seven, which he received with the 7? turn. The Japanese celebrated already and then did so again on the 5? turn when his triple-up was confirmed.
