Event 7 – ‘Omaha/Stud H/L’
Level 20 (Limits 15,000/30,000)
Total Entries: 70
Players Remaining: 3
Average Stack: 330,000
Jinglin Chen (Brooklyn, NY)
Jinglin Chen stayed alive for much longer than anyone at this final table expected him to, with Adi Prasetyo even calling Chen “immortal”. Eventually, that immortal run came to an end in an Omaha H/L hand, with Daniel Amar finishing what he started after he crippled Chen before the last break.
That hand was picked up with Amar making it two bets from the button, with Adi Prasetyo calling in the small blind before Chen moved all-in for 66,000 from the big.
Both players called and then checked down the {10c}{6d}{4s}{2d}{As} runout, with Amar turning over {Ah}{Ks}{5s}{2c} for two pair and a low.
Prasetyo thought they were chopping before he noticed Amar’s two pair, meaning his {Ad}{Kh}{Qd}{7d} went into the muck and Chen couldn’t beat either of Amar’s made hands, as his {Jh}{8h}{8d}{2c} was turned over as well.
He’ll make just over $1,500 for his final table run and Daniel Amar is now playing close to 550,000, with half the chips in play three-handed.
