Linh Tran Eliminated by Takayuki Iwamoto

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Action folded to Linh Tran on the button and he moved all-in for 89,000. Takayuki Iwamoto reshoved from the small blind, the big blind got out of the way, and the two players tabled their hands.

Iwamoto: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Tran: {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Tran found himself trailing Iwamoto's pocket nines and needed help from the deck in order to preserve his tournament life. The flop fell {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, giving Iwamoto a set to further extend his lead and leave Tran in terrible shape. The {5-Spades} turn and {10-Clubs} river changed nothing and Iwamoto took the pot to send Tran to the rail.

While this hand was in progress, Yang Zhang was also eliminated on the next table over.
