Delaney Runs Into Zheng's Kings
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Yifan Zheng raised to 8,000 in early position and Fernando Conte called in middle position. Christopher Johnson then three-bet to 23,500 in the hijack.
Michael Delaney called in the big blind as action went back on Zheng, who moved all in. Conte and Johnson quickly folded, but Delaney used a few time banks and tanked for a minute before calling for 120,000.
Michael Delaney: A♥J♦ 
Yifan Zheng: K♠K♣
Delaney was looking for an ace to stay alive, but he missed the 8♣7♥2♥5♠Q♦ board and Zheng took the big pot to send Delaney to the rail.
Thomas Clack was also recently eliminated.
