Justin Russell was all in for his last 72,000 holding AK against the AQ of Sung Bae.
Bae had Russell barely covered, so he was also essentially playing for his tournament life. The board fell J102K10, and Bae made a Broadway straight to steal the pot from Russell and earn the elimination.
Despite a loud celebratory yell from Bae, Russell took the beat about as well as he could as he exited the tournament area. Bae apologized to the table for getting excited as he stacked up to a new chip count of about 155,000.
