Event 3: Manouchakian Hits Quads to Burst Bubble

$350 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em
Level 19: 4,000/8,000/1,000 Ante
Players Remaining: 45/495

It all started when Ryan Ketterer peeked down at aces, got it in versus an at-risk opponent’s kings and held. The elimination left just 46 players remaining with only the top 45 finishing in the money. From there, it took four rounds of hand-for-hand for Event 1 final tablist Karl Manouchakian to finish the job.

In a heads-up pot, the board laid Qs7c3h9d7h. Manouchakian was in the small blind and moved all in having his lone, early position opponent covered.

“I call,” the opponent said after some time in the tank.

“Quads,” Manouchakian calmly retorted flipping over 7s7d.

The opponent exposed 6c6d and hit the rail. With that, the remaining 45 players were in the money and one step closer to the tournament’s $37,657 top prize.
