Uesugi Trips, Ousts Tolon (12th Place – $7,800)


On a flop of Q K 8, Jay Tolon check-shoved on Yoichi Uesugi’s 40,000 bet. Unfortunately for Tolon, it was an easy call for Uesugi, who tabled Q Q

Tolon had K 9 and needed a miracle to win this one. The turn A meant Tolon was drawing dead and the insignificant river 7 just formalized his exit. Tolon is out in 12th place for $7,800.
