Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Ben Yu

Ben Yu was under the gun and on the short stack. He looked down at his cards and moved all in for 257,000. The action folded around to Jake Schindler in the big blind who snap-called after taking a peek at his own cards.

Jake Schindler: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Ben Yu: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

It was race situation and Yu would need to connect with the board to keep his tournament hopes alive. The flop came {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Schindler was still in the lead. The {4-Hearts} on the turn and the {8-Clubs} on the river were of no help to Yu as he was eliminated in seventh place.

The final six players will no bag up their chips and return at 12:00 P.M. PST for the final table to be live-streamed on PokerGO starting at 1:00 P.M.
