Conniff Finds a Three-Outer to Deny Tasyurek
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Asher Conniff limped from the button and Halil Tasyurek shoved all in. Conniff shrugged his shoulders and called off his last 4,900,000 chips.
Asher Conniff: K♠10♦
Halil Tasyurek: A♠10♠
Tasyurek was once again on the brink of clinching his first bracelet and just needed to fade the three outs of Conniff in order to do so.
It wasn't a great start for the player from Turkey as Conniff paired his king on the K♥5♥3♦ flop.
Only an ace would give Tasyurek victory but neither the 8♣ turn nor 7♥ river offered any help and Conniff took a huge pot which reduced the chip deficit.
