Nathan: no good

The backers for ChipMeUp's Rayan 'rkruok' Nathan will be disappointed to see his name on the casualty list as he was eliminated on the very next hand after Nali Kaselias was sent to the rail.

With the flop reading {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

, Nathan led out for 1,200, only to see Jie Gao raise to 3,400. Nathan moved all in and Gao insta-called.

Nathan: {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

Gao:

{Q-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

Nathan was ahead with top two pair, but Gao struck gold with the {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

on the turn for the straight! Needing a queen or nine to wrestle back the pot, a repeat {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

spiked on the river and was enough to see Nathan go busto.

Gao moves up to 35,000 in chips after that hand.
