Level 22: 15,000 / 30,000 ante: 30,000

Jack Sinclair Out in 17th Place for US$11,965

A surging Joshua McCully of Australia has built his stack to above the one million mark and has the action folded to him on the hijack and raises it up to 60,000. Once it gets to the button of Jack Sinclair, the Englishman 3-bet shoves his remaining 250,000 as McCully males the call.

Sinclair turns over K♦ T♥ while the Australian shows A♣ J♠ .

The runout goes: 3♥ 9♥ 9♣ 8♦ 7♦ as McCully’s ace-high is good enough to bust one of the best players remaining in the competition.

Sinclair Backdoors Chiu’s Cowboys

Level 18: 6,000 / 12,000 ante: 12,000

Jack Sinclair

The hand starts with a player opening from utg for 24,000 and sees a 3-bet shove to 352,000 from England’s Jack Sinclair as Charlie Chiu from Taiwan re-raises all-in as well forcing the original raiser to fold.

Sinclair shows A♦ K♠ while Chiu reveals he is the favorite with K♥ K♦ .

The first three community cards are J♣ 9♠ 6♠ while the turn card brought out a sweat as the 3♠ appears. Chiu’s nightmare was realized on the river when the T♠ to complete a running one-card flush for Sinclair to drag the once mighty stack of the Taiwanese player down to mortal levels.

Sinclair’s AQ Better Than Li’s AQ

Level 14: 3,000 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

WSOP Europe Main Event titlist Jack Sinclair of England is all-in pre-flop for his remaining 42,500 against China’s Victor Li Zhenyu and as the hands are tabled, both show the same hand albeit different suits as Sinclair has A♦ Q♦ while Li tables A♣ Q♣ .

The flop, however, gives the Englishman a slight percentage edge as it comes J♦ 7♦ 8♣ for the nut flush draw. The turn is the K♣ but then the poker gods extend Sinclair’s tournament life by bringing out the 4♦ for the nut flush and a much-needed double-up. Li is now crippled with just above 30,000 in chips.
