Nobuaki Sasaki Eliminated in 6th Place
Level 16
: Blinds 0/0, 6,000 ante
Martin Nielsen opened to 70,000 from the cutoff and was called by Nobuaki Sasaki under-the-gun and Eric Wasserson in middle position.
The flop came out J?K?8? and Sasaki lead-jammed for 237,000. After the count was established, Wasserson made the call and Nielsen folded after some thought.
"Good fold," Wasserson said to Nielsen as he tabled J?J? for bottom set while Sasaki flipped over K?Q? for top pair.
The turn 7? left Sasaki drawing dead and the Q? completed the board for Wasserson to scoop the pot while Sasaki was eliminated in sixth place.
