Chin Wei Misses Draw to Exit

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

The flop was down {4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}, and Lim Chin Wei was in the big blind and up against Jean-Noel Thorel who was playing from the cutoff. Wei got his 60,000 stack into the middle and Thorel was happy to call.

Lim Chin Wei: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}

Thorel had a pair of tens, but Wei had a lot of outs with a flush draw and gutshot straight draw. The turn {3-Diamonds} gave Wei no new hope, and the {8-Spades} river sealed his elimination fate, as Thorel collected the pot.
