Joonhee Yea Eliminated in 23rd Place ($180,300)

Connor Richards

Level 29 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Joonhee Yea opened to 2,400,000 in middle position and Liv Boeree called in the hijack before Michael Addamo three-bet to 8,600,000 in the small blind.

Yea four-bet to 21,600,000. Addamo five-bet jammed and Yea called off for 14,500,000 more. Well, that's after about an eight-minute tank that saw him exhausting his time banks that gave Chris Moneymaker time to use the restroom.

Joonhee Yea: A♣K♠ All in
Michael Addamo: K♦K♥

Yea had run into kings and got little help from the flop of J♣K♣6♣ with a flush draw. The 4♠ turn was the right color but wrong suit as the 4♥ bricked off on the river.

Level 30 : 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

The action folded around to Roland Rokita in the small blind who shoved all in as the short stack with 7,400,000 chips. Derric Haynie was in the big blind and snapped him off as the cards went on their backs.

Roland Rokita: K♠Q♣ All in
Derric Haynie: A♥J♠

The flop came A♣5♥3♠ and Haynie made a pair of aces to take a commanding lead. The 10♠ on the turn gave Rokita a straight draw but the 2♦ on the river was not meant to be.

Level 30 : 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

Sorel Mizzi raised to 3,200,000 from under the gun with Q♥10♥ and was called by Michael Addamo in the hijack with A♠J♠ along with Liv Boeree in the big blind with 5♣4♣.

The flop fell Q♠3♠3♣ and Mizzi continued with a bet of 2,500,000 with his queens-up. Addamo called and Boeree got out of the way. The turn brought the 5♦ and Mizzi fired another barrel of 5,100,000. Addamo still called and the 4♠ completed the board, giving Addamo a flush.

Mizzi slowed down with a check this time and Addamo announced all in as the superior stack. Mizzi went into the tank but ultimately decided to make the correct laydown.

Level 30 : 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

Christopher Nguyen raised to 3,200,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Mustapha Kanit, who called in the big blind.

Kanit checked the 4♠2♥3♥ flop, calling again after Nguyen continued for 4,400,000. Both players then checked the K♥ turn.

The dealer flipped over the 2♦ river, where Kanit checked one last time. Nguyen used a time bank before sliding out a bet of 7,000,000.

Kanit went deep into the tank, using several time bank cards of his own before tossing in a call.

Nguyen showed 10♣9♣ for a bluff, while Kanit turned over Q♣4♣ for two pair to take down the pot.
