Shuang Luo Eliminated in 2nd Place ($125,100)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Maksim Shornikau opened to 600,000 and Shuang Luo defended from the big blind.
The flop came J♣8♣3♥ and both players checked leading to the Q♥ on the turn. Shornikau bet 800,000 and Luo moved all in for 3,500,000. Shornikau snap-called to put Luo at risk.
Shuang Luo: J♥8♥
Maksim Shornikau: Q♦5♣
Luo was a massive favorite with two pair but the 5♣ river gave Shornikau a bigger two pair to take the final pot of the tournament, the title and the top prize of $177,500.
