Mitsugi Shunsuke defended his big blind against button Rick Jason Ambata’s 12,000 open and saw flop 5♥ 4♣ 2♠ . Ambata continued for 7,000, check called by Mitsugi. On turn 5♣ , Ambata went for another 20,000 and was met with a raise to 60,000. Ambata moved all-in, leaving Mitsugi to call off his 100,000 behind.

Ambata A♥ 3♣ Mitsugi A♣ J♣

Drawing to any club, the river 7♦ didn’t spare Mitsugi from elimination, falling at two spots short of the money.

Cutoff Renniel Galvez opened to 10,000 and saw big blind Mitsugi Shunsuke complete, revealing flop Qx 7x 4♣ . Both players check it through, heading to turn 5♣ . Mitsugi leads for 15,000, called by Galvez. River 4♦ completes the board and Mitsugi bets all-in for Galvez’ tournament life. Galvez calls off his remaining 50,000 with A♣ 3♣ and is good against Mitsugi’s 2♣ 8♣ busted draw.
