Ben Palmer Eliminated By Yan Shing Tsang
Jul 21, '17
Ben Palmer raised to 275,000, leaving himself with just 7,000 behind. Yan Shing Tsang called, not realizing his opponent was all in.
The flop came down 1086, and Palmer went into the tank. Palmer was clearly hoping for another player to bust at another table, giving him the next pay jump, but David Sands was on top of it, calling the clock.
Palmer checked, and Tsang bet enough to put Palmer at risk. Palmer eventually called with AK, and had to connect to stay alive against Tsang’s JJ.
The turn and river fell 10J and Palmer was eliminated. The players are now down to the final two tables.
