Justin Kusumowidagdo Eliminated in 6th Place ($55,715)
John Racener opened from under the gun and action folded around to Shyamsundar Challa on the button who three-bet. Justin Kusumowidagdo came in with the cold four-bet out of the small blind while things got even spicier after Chad Eveslage put in a five-bet in the big blind. Racener quickly vacated the pot but both Challa and Kusumowidagdo called to generate a large pot heading to the flop.
Kusumowidagdo moved all in on the 2♠7♣7♥ flop for less than a bet. Eveslage and Challa each wagered one bet to put Kusumowidagdo at risk and get action going on the side.
Eveslage continued to pump up the pot on the 2♥ turn. Challa was still not going anywhere, instead making the call.
The J♥ river saw Eveslage get one last bet paid off by Challa as he tabled K♥K♣ for a winner, with Challa holding 9♠9♣. Kusumowidagdo, meanwhile, could only muster an ace-high hand to bring his deep run to a close in 6th place.
