Yilu Yuan Eliminated in 3rd Place ($42,500)
Level 36
: Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
Alexander Goulder raised to 8,000,0000 on the button and Yilu Yuan shoved his 38,100,000 into the middle from the small blind. Goulder thought it over for a while before making the call to try and get this tournament heads-up.
Yilu Yuan: A♦8♦
Alexander Goulder: K♥7♥
Yuan was ahead, but Goulder had eliminated all but two of the players so far on this final table. The flop came down K♠9♣3♠ to put Goulder in the lead with a pair of kings. The 7♣ turn meant Yuan was drawing dead to the two pair of Goulder. An inconsequential A♣ hit the river and the tournament was now heads-up.
