Double Elimination of Soukha Kachittavong/Michael Bissonnette (Event #8)


Soukha Kachittavong shoved all in from the cutoff for 575,000.  Michael Bissonnette re-shoved over the top for 1,125,000 from the small blind.  Mike Borchetta went into the tank and said, "How can I fold this hand twice on the same final table?" After two more minutes of thinking it over he called.  

Kachittavong:  [9c][9s]
Bissonnette:  [9h][8h]
Borchetta:  [ad][kh]

The flop came [jc][5c][3s] leaving Kachittavong in the lead.  He maintained that lead when the turn came the [2d].  But when the [kd] hit on the river, Borchetta would win the hand and eliminate both Kachittavong and Bissonnette.  According to the chop deal between the final five, Kachittavong took home $5,430 and Bissonnette took home $5,000.
