Kampanatsanyakorn Wants Out

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

It’s no fun playing a High Roller when you’re short on chips and on your first bullet. Surely it’s far better to bust as quickly as you can and pull out another €25,000 to get a full stack to play with again. At least that seems to be the philosophy of Chane Kampanatsanyakorn from Thailand. He’d lost a fairly big pot to Dmitry Yurasov at the start of the day and it doesn’t seem to have got any better for him since.

Down to his last 3,150 Kampanatsanyakorn shoved over an open from Imad Derwiche who made the fold. Soon after he shoved from the small blind and the big blind folded {4-}{3-}. He then open shoved from the button for 3,600 and got called by [Removed:119] in the small blind.

Big blind Bryn Kenney wanted to take the pot heads up and re-popped it to 9,100. Bensadoun though made the call and they saw a flop of {q-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. Bensadoun checked and folded to a bet of 7,000 from Kenney who turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}. Kampanatsanyakorn tuned over {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}.

The turn {8-Spades} and river {k-Spades} meant he tripled up and the re-buy would have to wait a while.
