Joshua McCully

Keisuke Tajiri raised to 240,000 from early position and Joshua McCully defended from the big blind.

McCully knuckled the action over to Tajiri on the Q 3 K flop, and Tajiri fired a continuation-bet for 305,000. McCully check-aised to 805,000, which was virtually all in. Tajiri jammed and McCully called off for his tournament life.

Joshua McCully: K J

Keisuke Tajiri: A A

McCully was behind with top pair against the pocket rockets of Tajiri.

The 3 on the turn was a disaster for McCully, as now he could only hit one of the two remaining kings in the deck to survive.

McCully's deep run in the Main Event continued as the dealer peeled off the K on the river to give him a boat, and he doubled up to 2,400,000.
