Carlos Watanabe Eliminated in 15th Place ($21,000)

Carlos Watanabe - 15th Place
Carlos Watanabe - 15th Place

Michael Binger raised to 60,000 from late position only to have Carlos Watanabe move all in for 311,000 more from the small blind. The big blind folded and Binger made the call.

Binger: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Watanabe: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

Watanabe was ahead but racing for his tournament life. When the flop came down {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, Binger hit his jack and took the lead. Watanabe knew he was drawing thin as he rose from his chair. The {10-Diamonds} turn was no help and the {A-Clubs} on the river made it official, Watanabe was eliminated from the tournament in 15th place. Meanwhile, Binger is back to the 2 million chip mark.
