Sung Baek, Mike Shariati, and Danny Nguyen are three-way to the flop. Baek and Shariati check from the blinds and Nguyen moves all in for 215,000. Baek folds his hand and Shariati takes his time to think it out.
He talks it over with an unresponsive Nguyen, checks his cards, and calls for less. Nguyen tables bottom set and Shariati slaps his top pair . Shariati has a shot after the turn but the Season WPT Hublot Player of the Year is eliminated by the river.
Danny Nguyen – 1,185,000 (59 bb)
Mike Shariati – Eliminated
