Blinds: 50,000/100,000
It was a battle of the blinds, and a battle of the big and the small stack at the table, when the flop came down [Kc][5d][3c]. Mike Shariati got the rest of his stack in the middle with [Qc][7c], and he was looking to complete his flush draw, as Erdenebayar Altangerel was out in front with [Ks][Qh] for top pair.
“Club, any club,” Shariati said a few times outloud as the turn and river were dealt out the [9s] and [Ad], keeping the top pair in the lead the whole time. This meant that Shariati was the first to leave the table, but not before telling the dealer that she sucked at dealing on his way to the payout desk.
With that, we are down to the final eight.
