Takayama Two-Outers Paur in Near Million Pot

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Taylor Paur was standing next to his seat with a stunned look on his face and no chips in front of him. After receiving the card with his finishing position from the chip runner, he made his way out of the Amazon room.

Mike Takayama was the one stacking heaps and the table collectively recapped the action that just transpired. Paur had raised to 16,000 from the hijack and Ema Zajmovic had called from the cutoff. Mike Takayama then three-bet to 77,000 on the button, Paur four-bet shoved for 416,000, Zajmovic folded and Takayama called.

Paur held {J-}{J-} and Takayama was a dog with {10-}{10-}. However, the {10-} fell in the window to ship the almost seven-figure pot over to the Filipino bracelet winner.

"It's all my fault," Zajmovic chuckled.
