Team Java Chips-Up Off Team Evangelista
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Action picked up on the river in hand between Mario Evangelista of Team Evangelista in the big blind and Nipun Java of Team Java in early position.
Team Evangelista bagged the chip lead on Day 1 of this event and has continued to be one of the top stacks in the room for most of Day 2, but that would shift after this hand.
Evangelista put out a river bet of 20,000 on a full board reading K♥5♠4♣3♠7♥ and was quickly called by Java, who turned over two aces in the form of the A♥A♠. Evangelista mucked and Team Java scooped the pot.
