Watabe Eliminated Near the Money
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Kiwamu Watabe limped the small blind and Thomas Eychenne asked how much he had behind. After hearing he had about 100,000, Eychenne moved all in for roughly 114,000. Watabe wasted little time dropping his chips across the line.
Kiwamu Watabe: 8?8?
Thomas Eychenne: A?9?
It was a massive flip, and the A?10?5? flop paired Eychenne's ace. The 4? turn and 10? river were no help for Watabe, sending him to the rail just two spots away from the money.
