Action folds to Kevin Choe on the button and he tanks for a bit before he raises to 18,000. WPT Champions Club member Shawn Cunix three-bets all in from the small blind for about 60,000 and Choe calls.
Choe: [KsJd]
Cunix: [8c8s]
The board runs out [JsTc4d4hTd], giving Choe jacks and tens to eliminate Cunix in 28th place.
Kevin Choe – 486,000 (81 bb)
Shawn Cunix – Eliminated in 28th Place
Cunix won this event two years ago, and even though he missed the chance to become the first player in WPT history to win the same event twice, he left the tournament area with a smile on his face, saying, "It went to somebody who needed it more than me."
Stone cold bubbled the @bestbet_jax ! Someone needed it more than me and I am happy for them! #inspirehappiness
