Matthew Emmel Eliminated in 2nd Place ($33,756)
Matthew Emmel opened to 700 from the button and Qi Hu then three-bet to 2,200. Emmel announced all-in for just under 10,000 and Hu snap-called in what was the last hand of the tournament.

Qi Hu: 
The flop rolled out 
and Hu was still leading with his pair of jacks but Emmel did add a flush draw to his outs.
A

The 
completed the board, failing to improve Emmel as he was eliminated in second place for a respectable $33,756.
