Saul's Big Slick Falls

Kevin Saul - Eliminated
Kevin Saul - Eliminated

From the cutoff Brian Yoon raised to 36,000. Kevin Saul three-bet to 86,000 on the button and action folded back to Yoon. After about 60 seconds, he four-bet shoved with the bigger stack. Saul called all in for about 640,000 and tabled {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, ahead of Yoon's {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

"This probably would be the key pot to win this tournament," said Saul. Unfortunately for him, the flop came down {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} to give Yoon the lead. Saul found no help from the {2-Hearts} turn or {8-Clubs} river, ending his Main Event.
