Bin Weng Eliminated in 8th Place ($14,500)
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alexander Wiggins opened to 80,000 from under the gun, and it folded to the small blind Bin Weng, who three-bet all in for 600,000. After the big blind folded, Wiggins sat in the tank, making a decision for the majority of his chips, but eventually found the call to put Weng at risk.
Bin Weng: A♦2♦ 
Alexander Wiggins: A♠J♠
As soon as Wiggins made the call, Weng said "I didn't see your open, I thought it was blind versus blind". It was an unfortunate mistake for Weng, who was dominated by the bigger ace of Wiggins. When the board ran out 5♣J♦8♣A♥K♥ Wiggins improved to two pair, aces and jacks and eliminated Weng in 8th place.
