Drew Dodge

We didn’t see the betting but we saw the outcome.

Drew Dodge was all in with AhQs and John Two-Bears was all in with AcAd. Justin Fawcett had both covered but he was way behind with QhQc.

The board ran out 8h6s4dJsQd and Fawcett hit a one-out river to send Dodge and Two-Bears out.

Justin Fawcett – 2,200,000 (88 bb)
Drew Dodge – Eliminated in 17th Place ($6,620)

Ye Yao

With about 250K in the pot and the board reading 9s4c3hTh, Ye Yao checked from middle position and Yan Jiang bet 100,000. Yao check-raised all in for 420,000 and Jiang thought about it for a minute before she called with the bigger stack.

Jiang: Jh9h
Yao: Ah8h

Jiang flopped top pair, both had a heart draw, but Yao’s was superior. He needed that or an ace to stay in the game, but blanked the Td river to exit in 21st place.

Yan Jiang – 1,260,000 (63 bb)
Ye Yao  –  Eliminated in 21st Place ($5,670)
