Shimizu Spikes River To Send Einsohn To The Exit

Nozomu Shimizu opened the action to 25,000 from the hijack and it folded around to Jarod Einsohn in the big blind who counted his stack of 132,000 before sliding them in the middle. Shimizu asked for a quick count and eventually tossed in chips for the call to put Einsohn at risk.

Jarod Einsohn: A♥Q♠
Nozomu Shimizu: J♥9♠

The flop came a sweat for Einsohn when it fanned out 10♣10♦8♦, giving Shimizu a straight draw to go along with his live cards. The 6♣ was safe for Einsohn, but when the river fell the Q♥, it was the queen-high straight that scored the pot to send Einsohn to the exit.
