Skarparis Catches a Boat on the River to Send Yuan Out
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
With the elimination of Mario Colavita, it meant just 25 players remained, one away from the three table redraw.
Georgios Skarparis had the chance to make the redraw happen as he had Xin Yuan at risk for a pot worth around 3,000,000.
Xin Yuan: A♦Q♦ 
Georgios Skarparis: J♥J♦
It was a fair fight and one that looked to be going Yuan's way as the 5♣2♥A♣ flop gave him top pair. A 2♣ on the turn was a brick, but the J♠ river meant Skarparis spiked a full house to snatch the pot away and send Yuan to the rail.
