Shimamoto Eliminates Eichhorn
Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Daniel Eichhorn raised to 235,000 from under the gun and Branden Shimamoto made the call from middle position. Maxim Kogay then three-bet to 750,000 and Eichhorn went all in for 2,350,000. Shimamoto went deep into the tank and asked for a count. After counting out the call and assessing, Shiimamoto then went all-in and Kogay folded 10♥10♦ face up.
Daniel Eichhorn: J♥J♣
Branden Shimamoto: A♠A♣
The merciless flop came out A♥J♣Q♦ and people joked that Kogay might've folded the best hand. The 8♣ turn and 3♥ river confirmed that Kogay would not have won and Eichhorn was sent to the rail.
