Li Yu Eliminated in 4th Place for HKD 488,400 ($62,464)
Level 30
: 50,000/100,000, 15,000 ante
The tide turned against Li Yu, and while he played a great game he was unable to recover from losing that last big pot to Yang Wang. As the shortest stack at the table, Yu tried to get something going from the button with an all-in shove and Wei Ran Pu made a quick call in the big blind.
Li Yu:
Wei Ran Pu:
Yu had won a couple of these hands already, cracking the pocket pair every time, but lady luck deserted him this time around with the runout giving Pu a set and bringing Yu's Main Event run to an end and he departed in 4th place for an HKD 488,400 payday. That pot gives Pu a sizable lead over the rest of the field and there are just two players between him and victory.
