Kosei Ichinose limped in and Ap Garza raised the pot for 640,000 out of the small blind, which Ichinose called with around 1,400,000 behind. Garza then announced a pot-sized bet on the Q♥9♠4♥ flop and Ichinose counted the chips he had behind before nodding and pushing all into the middle, earning a call from Garza with the barely covering stack.
Kosei Ichinose: A♣J♥J♠10♣
Ap Garza: A♥K♥9♦7♦
Garza was behind but had plenty of outs to recover from the previous blows. The 3♠ turn was not among them but the 3♥ river was, ending Ichinose’s run in seventh place for $163,405. Ichinose earned the applause from his Japanese rail before heading to the payout desk.
