Peter Hengsakul Eliminated in 2nd Place ($325,780); Jared Hamby Wins!
Hand #140: Peter Hengsakul raised to 160,000 and Jared Hamby moved all in. After re-checking his hand, Hengsakul made the call for his 1,800,000-chip stack.
Hamby:
Hengsakul:
As the crowd rose to their feet, the dealer spread a flop to keep Hengsakul in the lead, but it would be on the turn that would see Hamby's rail erupt with cheers.
With Hengsakul needing to spike a two-outer to stay alive, the on the river would unfortunately not be it as he was sent to the rail in 2nd place for a $325,780 payday while Hamby went rushing to his rail for congratulatory hugs.
"You avenged me! You avenged me!" screamed one of Hamby's railbirds in Griffin Benger in reference to the aces against kings beat he took at the hands of Hengsakul to bust in 12th place.
