Hand #69: Edward Ochana Eliminated in 3rd Place ($368,891)

Edward Ochana - 3rd Place
Edward Ochana - 3rd Place
Edward Ochana raised to 125,000 from the button, Joe Commisso folded from the small blind, and Richard Lyndaker called from the big blind.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Both checked. The turn was the {9-Hearts}. Lyndaker checked, and Ochana bet 130,000. Lyndaker peeked at Ochana out of the corner of his eye, then raised to 310,000. Ochana thought a moment, then made the call.

The river was the {10-Diamonds}. Lyndaker didn't take long to move all in. Ochana, with 520,000 behind, looked back at his cards and sat in contemplation. He picked up a couple of chips and smiled at Lyndaker, who simply stared at the board.

Finally, Ochana made the call.

Lyndaker turned over {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for the jack-high straight. Ochana showed {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades} for a pair of tens. Ochana has been eliminated in third place.

We are now going to take a moment to prepare for heads-up play.
