Asehan severely cripples Tadina
Still steaming from losing chips to chip-leader Barry Wong just moments prior, Filipino pro Edgar Asehan didn't need to wait too long as countryman Jessie Leonarez raises fit to 5,000 from UTG and Asehan 3-bets to 15,000. When the action folds to the BBof Australian Paul Tadina, he announces that he is all-in. Leonarez folds and Asehan makes a quick call.
Tadina turns over J♣ J♠ while Asehan has him crushed with Q♣ Q♠ .
The runout kept the impending result the same: T♦ 4♥ 3♦ 6♠ 4♠ .
Tadina is whittled down to just 2,000 in chips and he is practially all-in by posting the SB in the next hand.
