Ding Eliminated Just Shy of the Money
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Max Sharpe raised to 16,000 from late position and then called the shove by Yuze Ding in the hijack for what appeared to be 131,000 total. The other all-in showdown had gathered all the attention of the room and nobody was around yet, but all cameras then followed over to Table 541 to witness the below showdown.
Yuze Ding: K♣K♠
Max Sharpe: A♣K♥
Kings stayed ahead on the Q♠10♥2♠ flop but the J♥ turn gave Sharpe broadway. Ding now needed an ace to chop but the 10♠ river was no help, reducing the field to 1,519 players.
