Ding Fan Eliminated in 8th Place (€122,400)
Level 30
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Ding Fan open-shoved his 1,550,000 remaining chips in as first to act. It folded to Conor O'Driscoll in the cutoff, who used one of his time banks before he called.
Matan Krakow was on the button and tanked for a bit as well. Near the end of his shot clock, he reshoved, covering O'Driscoll. O'Driscoll waved goodbye to A♥Q♠, leaving his opponents to show down.
Ding Fan: 9♥9♣
Matan Krakow: Q♥Q♦
Fan was in dire shape against the higher pocket pair, and the 5♠6♥K♦ flop and 4♣ turn left him with just two outs. The 2♠ river did not bring a nine, ending Fan's EPT run in eighth place.
