Mahesh Bows Out In 17th Place

The High Roller eliminations continue and 25K Kick-Off winner Mahesh Shyamsundar was shown the door in the 17th position for ₹2,64,100. 

At Level 20, Shyamsundar shoved his stack of 780,000 with hole cards A ♠ 4 ❤ after a previous bet of 160,000 was made by Alok Birewar. After a few minutes of tanking, Birewar finally made the unorthodox decision to call Shyamsundar’s raise holding Deuces. However, it all worked out for Birewar when the board at showdown had T ♠ A ❤ 8 ♣ K ♦ 2 ❤ giving him a set on the river. So, although Shyamsundar had an Ace-pair on the flop he was eliminated from the event.

• Birewar: 2 ♠ 2 ♣
• Shyamsundar: A ♠ 4 ❤
• Board: T ♠ A ❤ 8 ♣ K ♦ 2 ❤
