India’s Ankit Ahuja Falls In The 15th Position

Level 19, Blinds: 30K/60K, Ante 60K 

Preflop action witnessed a short stacked Ankit Ahuja (A♥ 5♥) shipped in 500,000 with just 15,000 pending of his stack. The action falls to Sam Lam (A♣ T♣) who is on the button. He matches the bet quickly. Both the warring players see a flop of 9♣ 8♣ 4♥. Ahuja checked his option after taking a good 30 seconds. Lam put Ahuja all-in for his remaining tournament life of 15,000 chips.

Ahuja made use of one timebank, but the players around reminded the Indian that there wasn’t any pay jump. Finally, Ahuja tossed in 15K worth of chips. The turn and river fell as Q♥ and 2♦ respectively. Lam’s A♣ T♣ held water for him while Ahuja exited at the 15th place for a payday of TWD 262,200 (~$8,520).

• Ahuja: A♥ 5♥
• Lam: A♣ T♣
• Board: 9♣ 8♣ 4♥ Q♥ 2♦
