DeepStack Championship Event #72 Final Table Update

Blinds: 30,000 / 60,000

Mohsin Charania raised to 120,000 from the cutoff and was called by Steven Sarmiento in the small blind.

Both players checked the K♠ 9♣ 2♦ flop before the 7♦ fell on the turn.

Sarmiento bet out 125,000. Charania called.

The 8♦ completed the board and Sarmiento went into the tank for over a minute. He eventually bet 240,000 which was called almost immediately by Charania.

Sarmiento then tabled A♦ 9♦ for a flush, and took down the pot, after Charania mucked his hand in disappointment.

Mohsin Charania – 900,000.

Elio Fox Eliminated in 8th Place ($49,140)

Congratulations to Elio Fox from New York, NY who finished 8th in our DeepStack Championship Event #72 $3,500 NLH $2M GTD winning $49,140.

Blinds: 25,000 / 50,000

The flop showed 7♦ 8♠ 3♦ and 350,000 had already accumulated in the pot pre flop.

Elio Fox was in the small blind and checked. Henri Buehler bet 100,000 from the big blind. Fox called.

The turn brought the 3♠ and Fox checked. Buehler placed forward 200,000. Fox called.

The J♥ completed the board and Fox checked for a third time. Buehler bet a stack of 100,000-chips which covered Fox. Fox immediately called for his remaining 500,000.

Buehler then tabled A♦ A♠ for two pair, and took down the pot, after Fox reluctantly revealed his J♦ 8♥ for a lesser two pair.

Congratulations to Danny Tang from the UK who finished 9th in our DeepStack Championship Event #72 $3,500 NLH $2M GTD winning $36,855.

Linde: J♦ J♠
Tang: A♣ A♠
