Both checked on the 5♣ turn and the 7♥ landed on the river. Bui led out for 15,000 and after some thinking, Mossey let it go, showing A♠Q♠. Bui tabled 8x7x for trips.

The hand after, Mossey open-shoved for her last 36,000 and picked up the blinds.

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Aroha Ngata started the action with a raise to 7,000 and Lu Huang three-bet to 18,000 in the cutoff. Samantha Gonzalez looked at her cards on the button and after a minute, she shoved for 96,000. Ngata counted her stack and made the call, while Huang quickly folded:

Samantha Gonzalez: A♥K♣
Aroha Ngata: A♦A♣

Gonzalez was in desperate shape for a double up, and the board didn't help her with 5♠A♠6♥2♣5♣, improving Ngata's hand into a full house to bust Gonzalez in the unfortunate position of the bubble girl of the tournament.

All the remaining 195 payers are now guaranteed to receive at least $1,601 for their efforts.
