Jin Xue Eliminated in 14th Place (A$5,100)
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Jin Xue shoved his stack of 2,300,000 from under the gun and Corey van Jaarsveldt shoved with a slightly covering stack in the hijack.
Jin Xue: 3♠3♣
Corey Van Jaarsveldt: A♦J♣
This flip was crucial for both players, but especially for Xue as he was the at-risk player with his pocket threes. Those threes didn't look so good after the 7♣A♠4♠ flop gave van Jaarsveldt a pair of aces, leaving Xue on the ropes.
Neither the 9♥ turn nor 2♣ river offered any salvation for Xue, and he hit the rail in 14th.
