Yuan Busts First on Day 3
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Amir Mohammadi raised to 13,000 from under the gun and Yilu Yuan shoved from middle position for 114,000. Rosen Apostolov was in the big blind and shoved his stack of around 280,000, and Mohammadi got out of the way.
Yilu Yuan: A♠J♥ 
Rosen Apostolov: A♥Q♥
Yuan was way behind and fell further back when the dealer put out a flop of 6♦4♣Q♦. A K♥ on the turn did give Yuan some hope with a Broadway draw, but the 2♥ on the river was a brick, and Yuan was the first player to hit the rail on Day 3.
