2016 Showdown Matt White

Flight E continued to shrink at a steady pace but Matt White found a way avoid following the others out the door. He was getting short when he went set mining with 8h8c and found what he wanted on the Qc8d2s flop.

The chips quickly went in the middle after the Js turn and his opponent saw the bad news with his own flopped set holding 2d2h. White dodged the one out river for the full double to 54,000.

A lot of players haven’t been so lucky and we expect to see 100 or more culled before play ends after Level 14.
