Michael Tait

Harjinder Chawla opened to 125,000 from early position and picked up calls from Michael Tait, David Nathaniel, Michael Newman, and Gerard Sukhram. It was five-ways to the 7s3h2c flop, Sukhram checked, Chawla bet 180,000 and Tait raised to 360,000. The rest of the table folded, Chawla misclicked a three-bet and Tait ended up all in for another ~500,000.

“I’m behind now,” Chawla said. “But I’m getting there.”

Chawla: 4d4h
Tait: AdAc

Tait held the rockets for a double but Chawla did get there on the 4c turn. His set of fours cracked aces after the Jc river for another Chawla catch.

Harjinder Chawla – 6,500,000 (130 bb)
Michael Tait – Eliminated in 9th Place ($6,008)
