Oh Wow! Oh Kills Kumar and Falcon in One Hand

The field in the Main Event has grown to 70 entrants, 65 of whom are still in the running. Two of the early casualties were Michael Falcon and Vikram Kumar, who have both recently fallen at the hands of Junhwan Oh, in the same hand.

It was Kumar who was the man to kick start the action with a raise to 350 from middle position with Oh making the call before a short stacked Michael Falcon moved all-in from the cutoff for 3,500 in total.

A player on the button made the call, as did both Kumar and Oh and the flop came down {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}.

This is where the fireworks happened and Kumar, first to act, led for 7,000 before Oh raised to 14,500. After the button got out of the way Kumar moved all-in for 22,500 in total and sent Oh deep into the tank.

Eventually, the Korean player made the call and the cards were turned over.

Vikram Kumar: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Junhwan Oh: {10-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Michael Falcon: {7-}{7-}

The {a-Clubs} turn put Kumar in the lead, but not for long as the {q-Hearts} river completed Oh’s gutshot straight draw, winning the Korean player the monster pot and sending both Kumar and Falcon to the rail in one fell swoop.
