Back-to-Back Eliminations for Hori
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Heath Gerig jammed on the button and Kentaro Hori was in the big blind and asked for a count. After the dealer told him it was 260,000 he made the call.
Heath Gerig: 
Kentaro Hori: 
Gerig had two live cards but the 
run out meant Hori's ace-high was going to play and Gerig was sent to the payout desk.
The following hand, Dannah Kemp shoved all in from the cutoff for about 172,000 and it was Hori who called once again from the small blind.
Dannah Kemp:
Kentaro Hori: 
Kemp ran into a bigger pair and the 
flop was no help. The 
turn gave Hori a set of jacks and left Kemp drawing dead as the dealer flipped the 
river.
