Jonathan Vuong Eliminated in 10th Place ($16,190)
Level 28
: Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
After a preflop betting war, Jonathan Vuong moved all in and was called by Rakan Abusaleh to put him at risk.
Jonathan Vuong: Q♦Q♣
Rakan Abusaleh: 7♣7♥
Vuong was a big favorite with his pocket queens, but the flop of 6♣4♠5♣ was trouble for him as Abusaleh flopped a straight draw.
"Come on, dealer! One time!" Abusaleh shouted, vivid images of a king falling on the river earlier to keep Vuong alive running in his mind.
This time, Abusaleh was heard as the 8♠ immediately fell on the turn to give him the straight and left Vuong drawing dead. The board completed with the J♦ and Abusaleh was awarded the pot while Vuong was eliminated in 10th place.
