Utsab Saha Eliminated in Eighth Place ($77,051)

Utsab Saha - 8th Place
Utsab Saha - 8th Place
Hand #21 - Luis Velador

Luis Velador has the button in Seat 3. The action folds around to Velador and he raises to 60,000. The small blind passes and Utsab Saha reraises to 120,000 from the big blind. Velador, as he puts out the call, announces an additional reraise. He makes it 250,000 more. Saha thinks for a bit, and eventually moves all in. Velador makes the call. The players show:

Velador: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}
Saha: {A-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}

The gallery is a bit more enthusiastic this time, as the various supporters call for their preferred cards.

The flop comes {K-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {J-Spades} and the crowd's requests become impossible to decipher. The turn brings the {2-Spades} and the atmosphere is intense.

When the {6-Hearts} hits the river, Velador's gallery erupts. Saha slowly makes his way off stage. He'll take home $77,051 for his eighth-place finish here today.
