Wang had woken up with queens, but he ran right into Ketola's aces as the A♦10♦9♥ flop gave Ketola top set. The 9♣ turn improved Ketola to a full house, and Wang headed for the exit once the 8♣ completed the board on the river.

Darren Elias was also recently eliminated.

Level 13 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Darren Elias raised to 30,000 in the cutoff and Daniel Negreanu moved all in for 130,000 from the small blind. "You got it?" he asked as Elias snap-called.

Daniel Negreanu: A♦8♣ All in
Darren Elias: A♣K♠

"Your job is to just put the eight. However you want to do it," Negreanu told the dealer as he whipped out his camera to await the board. The A♠J♥3♠ flop gave both players top pair, but Elias remained ahead with his ace-kicker. The 5♣ fell on the turn to leave Negreanu one card away from elimination.

"GG," a tablemate told Negreau.

"GG? You're not feeling an eight?" Negreanu replied. The river was the 7♠ and Negreanu was sent to the rail.

"GG all. That was boring. I don't like playing ten big blinds deep," Negreanu added on his way to the exit.

David Salituro

Level 13 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Brian Kim was all in for around 350,000 from early position, David Chen put in his last 150,000 in the cutoff, and Dominykas Mikolaitis in the small blind had both players covered and at risk.

David Chen: A♠A♦ All in
Brian Kim: K♥K♠ All in
Dominykas Mikolaitis: K♣J♣

Chen showed down a pair of aces and was a favorite to triple up as the flop came 10♠10♦9♦. The 7♣ turn gave Mikolaitis a straight draw, and he spiked the 8♥ on the river to make his straight and send both opponents to the rail.

"Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting," tablemate Alex Theologis said.

"I run so good," Mikolaitis added.
