Kei Sugita

Renniel Galvez had a big clash with Kei Sugita when he flopped a pair and the ace-high flush draw only for Sugita to turn broadway on a board of K ♥️ 10 ♣️ 5 ♥️ Q ♣️ 10 ♠️ .

Galvez's A ♥️ 10 ♥️ were exposed, as were the A ♣️ J ♣️ of Sugita, and the stacks were counted. Sugita was the at-risk player for 83,000 and that left Galvez on fumes.

His last 7,500 went in preflop the next hand and Sugita isolated.

Renniel Galvez: Q ♥️ 9 ♥️

Kei Sugita: 9 ♠️ 9 ♦️

The pocket pair held on the 6 ♠️ 5 ♦️ 5 ♣️ 10 ♥️ 2 ♠️ board.

Player Chip Count
Kei Sugita 275,000
Renniel Galvez 0
