Ling Tong Eliminated in 18th Place (HK$247,500)

Chad Holloway

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

A sick beat just took place over at Table 3 that resulted in the elimination of Ling Tong.

We didn't catch the action until the turn on a board reading . There was about 100,000 in the pot, and Tong had gotten his last 70,000 or so all in against Yifan Zheng.

Zheng:
Tong:

Tong got his chips in with a full house against the of Zheng. Obviously Zheng's flush draw was no good, and that meant he needed to spike one of the two remaining aces to steal the pot. Well, we told you it was a sick beat, and that's because the peeled off on the river.

The table and railbirds reacted sharply while a shell-shocked Tong sought consolation from his girlfriend on the rail.
