Josh Ang Eliminated in 12th Place ($22,887)

Josh Ang - 12th Place
Josh Ang - 12th Place
Josh Ang moved all of his last 220,000 or so chips in from under the gun, with play folding around to the short-stacked Stefan Hjorthall who made the call in the big blind.

Ang: {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}
Hjorthall: {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {K-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and Hjorthall doubled through to around 350,000 to leave Ang with just 45,000 and on the big blind the very next hand.

By this time the other table had already finished their "round", three hands ahead of the "slow" table, so they all gathered around to watch a Ang pot-committed call from the big blind after Brandon Demes raised from the button.

Demes: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
Ang: {10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

The board arrived {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} to give Demes the pot and eliminate Ang in 12th place for $22,287 in prize money.
