Faraz Jaka Eliminated in 2nd Place ($300,000)
Level 63
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 0 ante
Faraz Jaka raised to 240,000, but then had a decision to make when Darius Samual re-raised to put Jaka all-in for his remaining 3,630,000.
Jaka decided to make a stand with a call, which put his tournament life at risk.
Faraz Jaka: A♠6♠ 
Darius Samual: K♦Q♣
Jaka’s Ace held the momentary lead before the flop, but it changed when the dealer fanned K♣A♣Q♥ on the board, putting Samual ahead with bottom two pair.
The 7♣ on the turn didn’t help Jaka, and the 3♥ on the river ended Jaka’s run at a second WSOP bracelet.
Jaka earned $300,000 for his effort.
