Park’s Kings Hold to Eliminate Hernandez
A player in early position raised to 120,000, and then things got spicy.
Joshua Hernandez, who was short stacked, moved all in from the hijack position.
WSOP bracelet winner Peter Park peeked down at his cards, and then looked at the original raiser and over to his right at Hernandez. Following a brief pause, Park moved all in and had Hernandez covered.
The original raiser immediately folded after the players on the blinds got out of the way, leading to Hernandez and Park to table their respective hands.
Joshua Hernandez: Q♣10♣
Peter Park: K♥K♣
The dealer fanned 7♣5♥4♥ on the board, keeping Park safely ahead. The 2♣ on the turn, however, provided a scare card because Hernandez suddenly picked up a flush draw.
The 4♠ on the river gave Park the winning hand and sent Hernandez to the rail.
