Level 31 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

With two players seeing a board reading 5♣J♣Q♠4♠, Caio Teixeira got his chips all in against Yuzhou Yin who had a covering stack.

Caio Teixeira: A♠2♠
Yuzhou Yin: A♦Q♥

Yin was well ahead with top pair but had to fade some outs from Teixeira in the form of the nut-flush draw and a gutshot straight draw. The 8♥ river was a brick and Teixeira made his exit from the tournament area while Yin took down a sizable pot.

Viktor Herr jammed from under the gun for his last 500,000 before action folded around to Yuzhou Yin on the button who raised to 1,000,000. The blinds got out of the way and the cards were turned up headed to the runout with Herr the player at risk.

Viktor Herr: 8♥5♦
Yuzhou Yin: Q♣J♦

The board ran out a very unhelpful 9♦7♥3♥9♣7♦ for Herr who would stand to make his exit from the tournament area in 22nd place good for $11,300.

Level 31 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

In a preflop confrontation Evan Sparling found himself all in from the small blind for approximately 1,100,000 against Ami Barer in the big blind who covered.

Ami Barer: A♦A♣
Evan Sparling: A♥9♥

Sparling found some outs in the form of a flush draw on the J♣4♥7♥ flop but the flush never materialized on the 4♠ turn or Q♦ river and he became the first to be sent to the rail today while Barer took down a nice pot.
