Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Matt Yates moved all in for his last 41,000 from under the gun and was followed by Matt Barker who went all in for 74,500 from late position. The action came to Minh Nguyen who moved all in from the cut off forcing a fold from the players on the button and blinds.

Yates: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Barker: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Nguyen: {A-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Spades} to give Nguyen the nut flush and the winning hand. With that double elimination Nguyen moves to over a million in chips as the field is left with 21 players.
