Guo Liang Wei Eliminated in 4th Place ($49,750)
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko opened the small blind to 350,000 before the action was on Guo Liang Wei in the big blind. He thought it over and flicked in a chip.
The 10♦10♣5♣ flop landed and Kirichenko continued for 300,000. Wei wasted little time before raising small to 675,000. Kirichenko took a moment and then piled his chips in. Wei snap called to put his tournament life at risk.
Guo Liang Wei: 10♠8♦
Aleksandr Kirichenko: 8♣8♠
Wei was in prime position to double but the dealer brought in a sweat in the form of a flush draw with the Q♣ turn. The 3♣ river would bring in the gross runner-runner flush and Wei would hit the rail.
