Rob Sherwood Departs Against Yunkyu Song

Level 10: 1,000 / 2,000 ante: 2,000

Rob Sherwood, runner-up of the 2024 WPT World Championship, is unable to spin up a late entry on Day 1b when he runs with A♣ J♥ into the K♥ K♦ of reigning WPT Player of the Year Yunkyu Song. Both players hit the ace-king high flop and that spells the end for Sherwood.


One table over, Thi Bao An Nguyen celebrates winning a big pot and grins "Ace high wins, I got pocket queens to fold". She soars near the top of the leaderboard with a big stack.
