Baker Eliminates Freeman on Day Two Bubble
On blinds of 10,000/20,000/20,000, Edgar Castillo opened to 45,000 from UTG+1. Ryan Freeman moved all-in from the hijack for 117,000 and Michael Baker rejammed from the big blind for 199,500.
Castillo took some time before folding and the all-in players tabled their hands.
Freeman: A♦Q♦ (all-in)
Baker: A♠K♠
Board: K♣8♠3♣6♠5♠
Freeman was nearly drawing dead on the king-high flop. The 6♠ sealed his fate and the 5♠ completed the board.
Freeman collected $360 for 8th place and the remaining seven players verified their chip counts for Sunday's 2:30 PM Day Two Restart.
Baker: 391,500
