Yanwen Li Eliminated in 4th Place (£23,250)
Level 31
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
On the first hand after the break, Ali Ayub bet 3,000,000 from the small blind and was called by Yanwen Li in the big blind.
Ayub continued for 3,500,000 on a flop of J♦10♥5♥. Li responded with a shove for 28,000,000. Ayub stood up and removed his sunglasses and made the call.
Yanwen Li: 9♠8♣
Ali Ayub: A♥A♣
Li was behind Ayub's pocket rockets, but had an up-and-down straight draw. The 9♥ on the turn gave Li a pair and she had nine outs to hit on the river.
But Li hit a fake out with the Q♥ giving her a straight, but gave Ayub the nut flush to the delight of his strong rail. Li bowed out gracefully in fourth place for her biggest-ever recorded cash.
