Masashi Oya Eliminated in 4th Place (�430,200)
Kayhan Mokri opened to 125,000 from the button, and was faced with a three-bet to 480,000 by Masashi Oya in the big blind. Mokri called.
On the K?Q?6? flop, Oya fired out a bet of 350,000. Mokri quickly called.
The 5? rolled off on the turn, and after some thought, Oya slid out a bet of 525,000. Mokri again called speedily.
The 5? river completed the board, and Oya took his time to count his remaining stack, before putting out a bet of 800,000, leaving himself around 120,000 behind.
Mokri pondered the spot for a moment, before moving all in. Oya sighed loudly and sat back in his chair. He gave it about 30 seconds thought before flicking the remainder of his stack in.
Mokri showed Q?8? for the rivered flush to take the pot, while Oya had Q?J? for second pair queens. Mokri has a big chip advantage heading into three-handed play.
The tournament director also informed the players the clock will now be reduced to 30-minute levels.
