Steven Touitou Eliminated in 12th Place as A.J. Kelsall Triples Up

Scott Baumstein raises from the cutoff to 160,000, and Steven Touitou (pictured) moves all in from the button for about 1,815,000. Mukul Pahuja thinks for a bit before he moves all in over the top from the small blind for about 2.5 million, and then A.J. Kelsall quickly calls all in from the big blind for 1,670,000.

Baumstein folds, and the players turn over their cards:

Mukul Pahuja:  
A.J. Kelsall:  
Steven Touitou:  

The board comes — Pahuja pairs his queen on the flop as Touitou picks up a gutshot straight draw, but they miss all of their outs. Kelsall wins the pot with his pocket kings to win the main pot worth more than five million and triple up in chips, as Pahuja wins the much smaller side pot worth about 300K to eliminate Touitou in 12th place.

A.J. Kelsall  –  5,070,000  (63 bb)
Mukul Pahuja  –  950,000  (12 bb)
Steven Touitou  –  Eliminated in 12th Place  ($16,697)
