Abrams Needs Second Bullet
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Four-way limped action to the 4♠5♣6♣ flop saw things pick up when Sokchheka Pho fired 1,000 and Scott Abrams raised to 5,500. After a call from the big blind, Pho re-raised to 20,000 and Abrams moved all in for his last 10,900.
After some consideration, the big blind opted to fold leaving Abrams at risk heads up.
Scott Abrams: A♦10♣6♠6♥5♦ 
Sokchheka Pho: A♠J♥8♣7♣4♣
Abrams flopped a set but was trailing Pho's straight. The K♣ turn saw Pho improve to a flush, while the 7♦ river left Abrams sliding his stack to the left.
"See you in a few minutes," Abrams said indicating that the defending champion was headed to the registration desk to purchase a fresh stack of 25,000 chips.
