On blinds of 6,000/12,000/12,000, Nawaung Maran opened to 30,000 from the button. David Tollar moved all-in from the small blind and Maran called after Harold Vetter folded the big blind.
Tollar: A♥5♣
Maran: A♠Q♥
Board: Q♦4♥3♣Q♣8♥
Tollar was dominated. He flopped a gutshot wheel draw that never came as Maran improved to trip queens on the turn and held on the 8h river.
Tollar was eliminated in 3rd place for $360. Maran and Vetter verified their chip counts for Sunday's 2:30 PM Day Two Restart.
