Patrick Liang Eliminated in 18th Place ($9,909)
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Patrick Liang ended up all in and at risk against Jie Fu, who had a similar stack depth. Play had been stopped at other tables, as they had reached 18 players and would be redrawing for new seats. One of these players didn't end up getting to redraw.
Patrick Liang: A♠K♥
Jie Fu: 9♠9♦
When the flop fanned out 9♥6♠6♠, Fu burst into celebration as this was the second time in the past hour he's spiked a nine for a big pot. Once the 3♣ fell, the K♦ that followed it was just a formality eliminating one of the former chip leaders, Patrick Liang.
Fu finished stacking his chips and said, "Nines are lucky! It's all luck".
