Sung Joo Hyun Eliminated in 8th Place ($182,662)
Level 17
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Alex Foxen opened to 200,000 from middle position and was called by [Removed:564] in the small blind.
Sung Joo Hyun then moved all in for around 2,100,000 out of the big blind, getting a quick fold from Foxen. [Removed:565] thought for a moment but did end up making the call with the covering stack to put Hyun at risk.
Sung Joo Hyun: A♠K♥
[Removed:564]: 10♠10♥
It was a huge coinflip with hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line. The 5♠2♠8♦ flop kept [Removed:565] in the lead but the 8♠ turn gave both players the spade draw with Hyun holding the better end.
The 3♣ river ensured the pocket pair held up, sending Hyun to the rail in eighth place.
