Takashi Ogura Eliminated in 18th Place ($21,553)
Takashi Ogura opened with a raise to 42,000 from middle position, and it folded around to Paul Kerr on the button. Kerr sat with his chin in his hand, and looked over at Ogura from under the brim of his black baseball cap.
"How much?" asked Kerr, pointing at Ogura's stack. He counted and responded "260" -- there was a little more than 260,000 chips, actually, sitting in front of him.
Kerr then tossed out some green and yellow chips, a raise to 129,000. It folded back to Ogura who quickly said he was all in, and Kerr just as quickly called.
