Rob Yong Eliminated in 4th Place ($856,000)
Level 23
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Rob Yong pushed his stack of 5,000,000 across the betting line from the cutoff, and Jesse Lonis called from the big blind to put him at risk.
Rob Yong: Q♠2♠ 
Jesse Lonis: A♣J♠
Yong came into today as the chip leader, and now was on the verge of being eliminated. The J♦8♣A♠ flop propelled Lonis into the lead with two pair, and Yong needed running cards to survive. Yong picked up a flush draw on the 5♠ turn, but the 2♦ river was a brick.
Yong headed to the rail in fourth, and the remaining three players went on a short break.
