Eljach Strikes Back
Level 28
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Anson Tsang opened to 300,000 from the button and Omar Eljach three-bet to 1,020,000 from the small blind. Tsang four-bet to 3,180,000 and Eljach moved all in for 3,335,000. Tsang made the call to put Eljach at risk for the first time since the start of the final table.
Omar Eljach: K♥K♣8♦7♥
Anson Tsang: A♥A♠10♣3♦
Eljach looked to be in dire shape against Tsang's aces until the flop came K♠10♥5♠ giving him top set. Eljach remained ahead on the 6♣ turn and 7♦ river to secure a much-needed double up, getting back some of the chips he had lost earlier while leaving Tsang with a very short stack.
