Level 36
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Quang Vu raised 2,400,000 in early position and action folded to Kyle Hoffner in the small blind.
Hoffner peeled back and his cards, and then promptly three-bet to 8,000,000.
Vu went in the tank in response to Hoffner’s aggression, and then he eventually folded.
“If you show, I show,” Hoffner said to Vu.
Vu started pushing his cards to the dealer, but stopped when he heard Hoffner. Vu showed 6x6x, and then watched as Hoffner tabled AxAx.

: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Quang Vu raised 2,600,000 in early position, and then faced a decision when Stephen Moss moved all in for his remaining 13,850,00.
The rest of the table folded to Vu, who appeared to agonize over his decision. Vu went deep in the tank for a few minutes before eventually calling to put Moss at risk.
Stephen Moss: A♠7♦
Quang Vu: A♣10♥
The dealer ran out 6♥7♣4♣ to put Moss ahead. The 4♦ appeared on the turn and Moss still led the hand.
Then, the 10♣ appeared on the river to give Vu the hand and send Moss to the rail.
Moss earned $16,770 for his 23rd place finish.
