button in SafariHuang's Back-to-Back Pockets Crushes Branciforte
Action was picked up with Chia Huang, under the gun, and Vito Branciforte, in middle position, in an all-in showdown with their hands and chips in the middle of the felt.
Chia Huang: Q♥Q♠ 
Vito Branciforte: A♥Q♣
The board ran 5♥3♥J♦2♣8♠. With no ace on the board Huang doubled up leaving Branciforte with only 40,000.
In the very next hand, Branciforte open-shoved with his remaining chips in middle position. Action folded around to the big blind Huang who made the call.
Vito Branciforte: 6♠6♥
Chia Huang: K♥K♦
Once again, Huang was ahead and kept his lead on the flop 9♦7♣Q♥. The turn came the 8♦, which gave Branciforte a bit of hope when it gave him an open-ended straight draw. But the 4♦ river card cemented his elimination from the tournament in two hands against Huang.
