No Back-to-Back Final Tables for Thomas

We arrived at the table with the flop spread out . Russell Thomas, who finished eighth in this very event last year, checked his option before Rajesh Sabapathy bet out 3,400. Thomas called and both watched the fall on the turn.

Thomas checked again. Sabapathy quickly threw out 15,000 in chips before Thomas snap-raised all in for approximately 20,000 in chips. He was instantly called.

Sabapathy:

Thomas had run into the set of threes held by Sabapathy and was unable to spike an ace or spade as the meaningless completed the board. Thomas was sent to the rail early in today’s proceedings as Sabapathy moves up to 60,000 in chips.
