Fujisaka Doubles Through Chai
Level 25
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
The first big hand of the final table evolved 25 minutes into the day's first level.
Roman Shainiuk opened to 90,000 from early position, and Paul Chai three-bet to 285,000 from the hijack. Travis Fujisakavis Fujisaka then started counting out pink T100,000 chips, appearing like he was ready to make a big move.
Fujisaka did just that, four-betting to 900,000. Shainiuk quickly folded.
Paul Chaii then went all in with the rest of his 3,100,000 total stack, and Fujisaka snap called.
Travis Fujisaka: 
Paul Chai: 
Board: 
It was about as good of a situation as Fujisaka could hope for, with the queens well ahead of Paul Chaii's pocket jacks. The runout came out pure for Fujisaka, who scored a big double at the final table.
