Bhasin Eliminates Vos and Portaro

Roy Bhasin has just claimed two huge scalps with the chips going all in on a flop of {3-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

Bhasin held {K-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and was up against the {8-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-?} of Mark Vos and the {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{6-Spades} of Bruno Portaro.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds} to give Portaro a full house, but the {5-Clubs} on the river gave Bhasin a bigger boat to knock out two of Australia's heavyweights.

"How can you even play that?!?" exclaimed Portaro as he and Vos exited, leaving Bhasin to stack up 30,000 chips.
