Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Mihai Niste opened the button to 24,000 and Ethan Yau shoved from the small blind for 75,000. Once the big blind folded, Niste made the call.
Ethan Yau: A♦6♠
Mihai Niste: K♠8♦
Yau was in need of a double-up and remaining in the lead after the 3♥Q♥2♣ flop. Niste jumped into the lead on the 8♥ turn and Yau couldn't catch up on the J♣ river, which meant he was eliminated.
