Hao Tian Eliminated in 9th Place ($85,000)
Level 27
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Hao Tian shoved for 2,350,000 from early position and Jamil Wakil called from the hijack. After the rest of the table folded, the cards were tabled with Tian at risk of being the first elimination at the final table.
Hao Tian: A♥Q♣ 
Jamil Wakil: A♦K♠
Tian was in rough shape against the Big Slick of Wakil and needed to find a queen to stay alive.
A flop of 4♥5♠4♦ gave Tian a few outs to chop the pot, but the J♣ turn meant Tian was one card away from hitting the rail. A 9♣ rolled off on the river, and Tian was out in ninth place.
