Hinrichsen Gets There

Andrew Hinrichsen has just doubled up again, and this time Tom Alner was his victim. The WSOPE bracelet winner four-bet all in preflop with {4-}{4-} and Alner called with {a-}{J-} suited. The board brought mere blanks for Hinrichsen who keeps getting closer and closer to the average stack.

Almost a Massive Pot

On the {8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop, Xing Zhou checked, and Seungsoo Jeon bet 8,500. Zhou made the call, and the dealer placed the {J-Spades} out on the turn. Both players checked.

The river was the {7-Spades}, and Zhou bet 23,000. Jeon put in a raise to 85,000, then Zhou came back with a big shove for approximately 370,000. Jeon had a little over 300,000 behind, but eventually gave it up.

Wang Gambles and Loses

"I'm no poker player, I'm a gambler," Henry Wang just said moments before calling Jacques Zaicik's all in. Zaicik was all in for 28,300 and Wang made the call putting the Frenchman at risk again.

Jacques Zaicik: {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Henry Wang: {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {8-Spades}{10-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}, and Zaicik's pair survived.

McCarty Doubles Through Lin

Team PokerStars Pro Celina Lin just raised preflop after which James McCarty moved all in from the big blind for 50,000. Lin made the call and tabled {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, but she was in bad shape versus {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}, and Lin lost about half her stack. McCarty is back in it, but still well below the average.

Down to Three Tables, Celina Lin Eliminated

There's just one Team PokerStars Pro remaining after we just had to say goodbye to Celina Lin. Lin was all in preflop against Andrew Gaw, and the showdown went as following.

Celina Lin: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Andrew Gaw: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

The board ran out {A-Clubs}{5-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Spades}, and Lin was knocked out. Just 27 players remain as we are down to just three tables. The money is now just five places away, and that will be the goal for tonight.
