Yueqi Zhu opened to 5,500 from under the gun and then called off for his remaining chips after Scott Abrams three-bet to 19,000 from middle position.
Yueqi Zhu: A♣K♥J♣4♣
Scott Abrams: A♦A♠6♥5♠
Zhu was in rough shape and left hoping for running clubs or a deuce on the 8♣3♠5♦ flop. The 7♣ turn was sweaty but the river bricked out J♥ to hand Abrams the pot and condemn Zhu to an out of the money finish.

Three players saw the 5♥4♣2♣ flop for 21,000 and the small blind was already all-in. Jose Ferreira fired 21,000 into the dry-side and the button made the call.
When the A♦ fell on the turn, Ferreira announced a pot-sized bet of 102,000. The button went into the tank for quite some time before making the fold.
Small blind: 10♣9♠8♠7♠
Jose Ferreira: Q♠J♠7♣6♣
The button seemed frustrated as he saw the cards tabled and quickly flashed his hand before the dealer mucked them. According to another player on the table, he had a set.
The K♦ river missed both players and Ferreira eliminated his opponent with queen high.
