Gerald Chung Out in 5th Place for $3,940

Level:21 (10000/20000/20000)
Entries:5/77
Prizes:$51,205

Shawn Taghavi raised early to 40k, and got calls from Ben Grenier and Gerald Chung in the blinds. The flop came 627 and, after a check from Grenier, Chung bet 52k.

Taghavi bumped it up to 175k, prompting a fold from Grenier, but a tank-call from Chung. The turn 8 lit the fuse as Chung shoved the bigger stack, and Taghavi called it off at risk. Taghavi was on A4 for the nut flush, while Chung had flopped top pair, then turned the smaller flush with 97. Chung was left short after the 3 river completed the board, playing about 250k, which went in the next hand and he was off to the cage for 5th place.

Taghavi doubled to more than 650k after the hand.
