Veerachai Vongxaiburana
PLO8
Veerachai Vongxaiburana started the new level as the short stack and after treading water for the PLO round, lost a massive PLO8 hand and is on the rail as a result.
Vongxaiburana limped in from the small blind and Jeremy Tinsley checked. Vongxaiburana checked the A♠10♦8♠ flop and Tinsley bet 24,000. Vongxaiburana raised the pot to 96,000 and while Tinsley attempted to raise his opponent all-in, the bet was not verbalized in the proper manner and his chip movement was ruled as a call.
Vongxaiburana bet his last 42,000 on the Q♠ turn and Tinsley called then. Tinsley had turned a flush 9♦9♥5♠4♠ and was up against the A♣J♣9♣2♥ of Vongxaiburana, who had turned a straight. Tinsley had Vongxaiburana drawing dead and he collected the pot.
Vongxaiburana earns $9,500 for his second Omaha final table of DSE III and comes up short of his second title. Three-handed chip counts are below.
- Jeremy Tinsley – 450,000
- Gary Bolden – 580,000
- Mark Dube – 470,000
