Cruel Exit for Wantman Against Li

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Matthew Wantman

Heads-up to the {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop, a bet worth 185,000 was in front of Tong Li and he then faced the check-shove by Matthew Wantman for what appeared to be around 350,000. Li didn't ask for an exact count bit the clock was ticking on the shot clock format.

With six 30-second extensions at his disposal, Li used them all before splashing in calling chips moments before his hand was declared dead.

Matthew Wantman: {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Tong Li: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}

The {q-Clubs} turn suddenly gave Li by far more outs and he indeed got there on the {j-Clubs} river to knock out Wantman in cruel fashion. While the hand lasted several minutes into the dinner break, Li certainly didn't mind the outcome while Wantman quickly stormed out of the tournament area.
