Gue and Yohannes are Eliminated; Blodgett and Hudson Chip Up
Action was followed from when the cards were already on their backs and Muruz Yohannes was all in and at risk. He was against Zachary Hudson who was to his direct left.
Muruz Yohannes: J♦J♣
Zachary Hudson: A♠A♦
Yohannes needed to improve against Hudsons Aces, but he found no luck on the 6♦Q♠10♦5♣8♣ board.
At the same time, one table across, Jason Blodgett was on the button and in a hand heads-up against Pierre Gue who was in the big blind.
The players were already looking at 3♥A♦6♥5♦3♣ and the pot stood at around 6,150,000 with action to play on the river.
Gue moved all in for 5,200,000 and the action went to Blodgett. He tanked for around two minutes before the clock was called. He had 30-seconds to make a decision and eventually made the call.
The dealer called for the cards to be flipped.
Pierre Gue: Jx4x
Jason Blodgett: 7♥7♦
Blodgett took the pot with a pair of sevens and Gue was eliminated.
