Ben Yu Eliminated in 13th Place ($34,964)
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Limits: 50,000-175,000
Shaun Deeb raised to 100,000 in middle position and Christopher Vitch called in the hijack. Ben Yu then potted to 450,000 in the small blind and Deeb folded, while Vitch called.
The flop came 8♦4♥7♣ and Yu moved all in for 400,000 as Vitch quickly called.
Ben Yu: A♣A♥J♠3♣
Christopher Vitch: A♦8♣5♣2♠
Vitch already had the nut low against Yu's aces and they were poised to chop the pot after the K♥ turn, but Vitch spiked two pair on the 5♠ river to send Yu to the rail in 13th place.
