Thomas Kysar Eliminated in 2nd Place ($248,502)
Nível 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Diego Ventura had been chopping away at Thomas Kysar by continuing to put pressure on his stack throughout the last few hands of heads-up play, via repeatedly moving all-in from the button.
Ventura would do so again in the final hand, but this time Kysar made the call for his remaining 4,300,000 chips.
Thomas Kysar: K?2?
Diego Ventura: A?8?
In a bit of a roller coaster runout, Kysar flopped a pair of deuces on J?5?2? to take the lead.
The board would pair on the J? turn, opening up additional avenues to victory for Ventura.
One of those avenues would materialize on the 5? river, giving both players jacks and fives, but Ventura’s ace kicker would top the king kicker of Kysar and eliminate him in second place.
