Rocco Busts Yau

Level 15 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ethan Yau

When it folded around to Ethan Yau on the button he decided now was the time to commit his last 420,000 into the middle.

Paul Jager was in the small blind and went deep into the tank, using possibly his first time extension of the event. As he slid his time extension to the dealer, Michael Rocco put in calling chips and turned over pocket jacks, mistakingly thinking Jager had folded. After the floor was called over, it was settled that Rocco's call would stand with the action back on Jager. It didn't take long for Jager to fold his hand, and the cards were revealed.

Ethan Yau: A6 All in
Michael Rocco : JJ

Yau flopped a six on the 627 flop, but didn't improve any further as the 5 turn, and 3 river cemented his elimination from the event.

After the hand Rocco commented to Jager "you never use time extensions". Rocco was then issued a one-hand penalty by the floor staff.
