Abhinav Out At The Fifth Place

Soon after the players returned from the break, it was Abhinav Iyer’s time to bid adieu to the WPT Prime India 2023 Main Event dream.  After losing a considerable pot before the break, Iyer returned to the table as the shortest stack. Kiran Bondu (A ♠ 8 ❤ ) raised the blinds to 500K from the small blind.

Iyer tanked for a while and made the gutsy call with T ❤ 9 ♦ . Bondu revealed As 8h. The board of 2 ♣ 4 ❤ 3 ❤ 3 ♣ 5 ♦ brought no relief to Iyer and he ended his run taking the fifth spot for a pay cheque of ₹24,00,000.

• Iyer: T ❤ 9 ♦
• Bondu: A ♠ 8 ❤
• Board: 2 ♣ 4 ❤ 3 ❤ 3 ♣ 5 ♦
