Jiang Eliminated by Yang
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
In a duel small blind versus cutoff, the turn showed 8♥5♣2♥A♥ and that's when the chips went into the middle between Yunpeng Jiang and Shaojie Yang.
Yunpeng Jiang: A♠5♠
Shaojie Yang: 8♠8♣
Jiang had turned two pair with the ace-five suited but was up against a flopped set. No ace came on the river, which was the 7♣, and both stacks were counted. Yang's 24,000 covered to reduce the field by one. The open seat was filled with Lei Yu shortly thereafter.
