Pillai Has Piles

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action folded to the player in the hijack and he moved all in for 30,500. Shankar Pillai was in the small blind and decided to call. Ryan Riess was in the big blind and looked back at his cards a few times before deciding to fold.

Pillai: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

"Wow. This guy never makes any mistakes," said Martin Kabrhel. The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Pillai held to score an elimination.

Pillai has now more than doubled the 242,000 in chips he started the day with.
