Ricky He Eliminated in 15th Place (AU$3,292/$2,250)

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Tam Truong is increasing his stranglehold on the tournament, with the elimination of Ricky He shooting Truong into the millionaires' club, at least when it comes to chip stacks.

After He limped the cutoff, Truong completed the small blind and Jun Wang checked his option taking play three-way to a flop of {q-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}.

Both Truong and He became embroiled in a raising war, folding out Wang to take action heads-up with all the chips going in on the flop.

Tam Truong: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Ricky He: {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}

He held top pair and blockers for Truong's nut flush, though the latter also had a gutshot Broadway draw. However, neither of these came in with Truong getting there through the backdoor, and while the {4-Clubs} turn gave He two pair, the {8-Spades} river gave Truong a straight to scoop the pot.

Truong climbed to 1m in chips, while He hit the rail in 15th for AU$3,292.
