Okada Gets Lucky
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Hoa Thinh Nguyen raised to 3,500 and Lester Edoc three-bet to 10,500 on the button before Konstantin Pogodin four-bet all in out of the big blind. The shove of the Russian was for 31,400 and that forced two folds.
Yo Seb Rhee's third time was not a charm, as he was eliminated by Linh Tran while Ken Okada was at risk and escaped from the same fate in spectacular fashion.
Okada was all in for 24,200 with the 
and Simon Burns looked him up with the 
. A rather ordinary coin flip took a dramatic run out on a board of 
to see Okada double up with the better full house.
