Akinobu Maeda Eliminated in 8th Place ($33,006)
Level 32
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
David Stamm kicked off the action with a raise to 500,000 from middle position, which Akinobu Maeda called from the button. Adam Hendrix, in the big blind, thought for a while before folding.
On the 6♥10♣K♥ flop, Stamm checked to Maeda, who bet 250,000. Stamm called.
The turn brought the 3♦, and Stamm checked again. Maeda took his time, counted his stack (950,000), and deliberated before deciding to go all in. Stamm called immediately.
Akinobu Maeda: A♦A♣
David Stamm: 10♠10♥
With a set of tens, Stamm was in a commanding position. The Q♠ on the river sealed Maeda's fate, sending him to the rail.
