Kyle Chang has been riding the short stack for a few orbits now, patiently waiting for a worthy opportunity to slide forward his stack. With 4 folds leading up to him, he peeled down at a marginal hand and pulled the trigger for his last 840,000 in the last hand of level 33.
Kyle found a fold from Shahar and from Leandre, however both Mike Leah and Cassidy Battikha called the all-in from with a discount from the blinds.
The two live players checked down to the river, and with
showing, all three players were told to table their hands. Mike flipped over
, Cassidy showed
and Kyle opened
. Neither of the players connected with the board, and Cassidy took the pot with his King-high – sending Kyle to the rail in 9th place.
With only 8 players remaining in the Grand Prix Canada, the final table has been moved back up on the stage so that the live stream can resume. Viewers can follow all the action by either visiting the Playground Poker Facebook page or the partypoker LIVE twitch page – the stream is on a short delay and will therefore begin in a few minutes.
9th place: Kyle Chang – $5,000
