After Nolan King raised to 300,000 from the button, Pei ''Jerry'' Li three-bet to 1,100,000 from the small blind. The big blind, Raul Esquivel, called and King folded.

The {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop got a lead of 450,000 from Li and a call from Esquivel.

{10-Diamonds} turn drew another bet from Li, 1,400,000, which was called.

On a {8-Spades} river, Li then bet 3,000,000 or so and Esquivel went in to the tank, shaking his head before letting his hand go. Li's rail birds clapped as he pulled in yet another pot, giving him a commanding position over the final three.

In a pot of roughly 1,500,000 in the middle on a board of {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}, Nolan King checked from the small blind and Pei "Jerry" Li bet 600,000 from the big blind. King quickly raised to 2,600,000 and Li made the call.

On the {k-Clubs} river King bet again, this time to the tune of 2,100,000 and Li decided on a raise to 7,000,000. King took a moment contemplating what to do, but eventually folded and the massive pot was sent to Li who is now the chip leader.

Eemil Tuominen Eliminated in 4th Place ($63,231)

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Eemil Tuominen
Eemil Tuominen

After a limp under-the-gun from Pei ''Jerry'' Li, Eemil Tuominen bet pot to 400,000 chips. Nolan King called out of the big blind and so did Li.

On a flop of {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, Eemil Tuominen bet 1,300,000 and King raised enough to get the rest of Tuominen's chips in, another 1,000,000 or so, which he called off once Li folded.

Eemil Tuominen: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Nolan King: {j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

King had a gut shot and some back doors against Tuominen's pair of aces plus backdoor heart draw. The turn of {9-Spades} gave King the straight and had Tuominen drawing dead. The {q-Diamonds} completed the board, sending Touminen to the rail in 4th for $63,231.

William Gross Eliminated In 5th Place ($47,153)

Nolan King opened blind to 200,000 from under the gun before the cards were dealt. William Gross elected to three-bet to 700,000 and it folded back to King who moved all in, covering Gross' stack, who made the call for roughly 1,800,000 total.

William Gross: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Nolan King: {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

On a flop of {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}{2-Clubs}, Gross was in great shape for a double up but when King announced "heart" and the {3-Hearts} hit the turn it became much more of a sweat. King again announced "heart", as he did in a previous hand predicting the outcome, and when the {2-Hearts} hit the river King's prediction came true with a back door flush, eliminating Gross in 5th place.

In a pot of 1,400,000 in the middle on a board of {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, Raul Esquivel checked from the small blind and Nolan King bet pot. Esquivel moved all in for 1,850,000 total and King made the call.

Raul Esquivel: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Nolan King: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

King flopped a set but was out drawn on the jack turn, giving Esquivel the nut-straight. King needed the board to pair to eliminate his opponent. The {4-Diamonds} rolled off on the river and the straight of Esquivel held for the huge double up.
