Qiang Xu Eliminated in 9th Place ($34,210)
Level 30
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Andres Korn opened from under the gun to 325,000. Action folded around to Qiang Xu in the big blind who elected to call and see a flop of 6♣3♣5♦.
Xu checked to see Korn continue with another bet of 325,000. Xu gave it some thought before raising the rest of his chips all in and Korn snap-called to put Xu at risk with two cards to come.
Qiang Xu: A♠7♥
Andres Korn: Q♦Q♠
Xu needed help from the turn or the river to pair his ace or complete his straight but the J♣ turn and the 5♥ river did neither and instead sent Xu to the rail in ninth place for $34,210.
