Gioi Luong Eliminated in 19th Place ($16,232)

Gioi Luong moved all in for 114,000 and Barry Cales called from the big blind. Luong tabled the {A-Spades}{K-Spades} while Cales showed T-T. The flop was {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, the turn the {Q-Diamonds}, and the river the {3-Hearts}. The tens held, Luong's hand did not improve and he was eliminated.

Gioi Luong may not be a household name, but he's one of the most successful tournament players in Southern California. He has close to $2 million in lifetime tournament winnings with over 100 recorded cashes in the last four years alone.
