Event 8: Wach-ing into a Trap

$500 + $60 Deeper Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

 Sinishtaj & Wach

Dan Wach (Boonton, NJ) jokingly complained about his table draw on Table 15 with good friend and fellow big stack Orson Young (Oceanport, NJ) on his left.

"They don't want me to win," says Wach, "I'm going to have to play tight," knowing full well that his table will be the first to break.

Wach, who finished second in Event 1 for $236,000, is moved to Table 1 and is on the left of Tony Sinishtaj (Flushing, NY) and the two end up in a huge pot.

Wach 5-bets all in with KQ against Sinishtaj's pocket Aces.  Wach flops two pairs to take the lead, but Sinishtaj goes runner-runner diamonds for the winning flush.

Sinishtaj doubles 283k and is now up to 650k, while Wach is cut to 430k.
