Yaxi Zhu is moving up the chip leader board after winning a big pot off Xuan Liu.
We didnt catch the action, but we know the chips went in on a with Liu, having Zhu covered, appearing to put Zhu to the test for her tournament. Unfortunately for Liu, Zhu called and had which was well ahead of Liu's .
The turn and the river were no good to Liu and so she was left with a tiny stack.
The bubble just burst here as Andrew Molodstov faced a painful river.
He opened the action for a raise to 15,000 from under the gun before Phil Sayers smooth called from middle position. Michael Guzzardi next to act asked for a count of Molodstov’s stack, before popping it up to 30,000 total.
Molodstov went deep into the tank, removing his sunglasses and weighing up his options. He eventually announced "all in" for a little more, while Sayers tossed his cards before announcing he folded queens. Guzzardi called and Molodstov was at risk.
Guzzardi:
Molodstov:
It was a race and the flop gave Molodstov false hope as he looked good to survive. The turn was a brick but the river was a crushing blow, and he hit the rail as the bubble boy.
The remaining 21 players are now guaranteed $3,900.
