Event 13: Field Shrinking Quickly; Nashaat Antonious Doubles

$1,100 Eight-Handed Turbo NLH (Freeze-Out)
Prizepool
Level 13: 1,500/3,000 with a 3,000 ante
Players Remaining: 28 of 97

With the prizepool released and the final 16 players getting paid, this Eight-Handed Turbo field is shrinking quickly, down to the final four tables with 28 players remaining.

Nashaat Antonious was all in from the cutoff for 40,500 with KsKh, and he needed his hand to hold to stay alive against big blind’s Ad10d.

The board came Jd5d5s9cQs — the big blind flopped a diamond flush draw, but improved no further as Antonious won the pot with his pocket kings.

Nashaat Antonious  –  83,500  (33 bb)
