Chai Gambles and Loses

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Travis Fujisaka
Travis Fujisaka

Travis Fujisaka went all in from the cutoff and action folded around to Paul Chai, who was in the big blind. He asked for a count, which was totaled to be 147,000.

"I double you up once, but not twice," Chai said. "I call,"

Travis Fujisaka: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Paul Chai: {j-Spades}{9-Hearts}

"Jack-high again - my favorite hand!" exclaimed Chai. The dealer brought a runout of {7-Spades}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, resulting in Fujisaka's king kicker to the board's trip sevens remaining best to score him a double at Chai's expense.

Rickey Evans also recently was eliminated from the tournament, finding his fortunes to be not as grand as those of Fujisaka as he became the 26th place finisher in the tournament.
