After being shortstacked by Anthony Zinno and then losing a big one to Richard Leger’s set, David Paredes, who won the 2015 WPT Borgata Championship, met his fate at the hands of Leger. Leger opened from middle position and Paredes shoved from the small blind. Leger called and Paredes was racing for his tournament life.

Paredes: 7h7d
Leger: QdJc

The flop fell KdJs9d improving Leger to a pair and earning him the lead. Paredes mucked his cards when the turn fell the Ad and the river the 3d. Leger’s pair was good and he busted Paredes 18th.

Richard Leger – 965,000 (80 bb)
