Shih Finishes Off Tomita
Level 21
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Tetsuro Tomita moved all-in for 68,000 in the cutoff and Kenny Shih called on the button.
Tetsuro Tomita: A?2?
Kenny Shih: K?Q?
Tomita was happy to be ahead while Shih grinned and suggested "straight, maybe?"
The K?Q?10? flop gave Shih two pair and joked "no straight, abort ... abort". Nothing changed with the 5? turn and 7? river to knock out Tomita as both players shook hands.
Day 1a chip leader Oleg Kaminski followed alongside Jeoffrey Sibal.
