Winneker Wins on River

Towards the end of 8,000/16,000/16,000, Carson Winneker opened to 32,000 UTG. Raj Kumar immediately three-bet to 125,000.

Action folded back around to Winneker. Winneker took his time to find a jam as the covering stack. Kumar had less than 200,000 behind and made the call to put himself at risk.

Winneker: 9♦9♣
Kumar: Q♥J♥
Board: Q♣7♣2♦T♥9♠

The queen-high flop was painful for Winneker. He needed to find the two-outer and it came home on the 9♠ river.

Winneker and Kumar had very similar stacks so the dealer had to count each stack down to verify Kumar's elimination in 16th for $530.

15 players remain. Players are about to be sent on a 15-minute break and return to blinds of 10,000/20,000/20,000.
