David Funkhouser: A♥K♦ / 10♥8♥7♠10♣ / 5♥

Funkhouser limped before Yu went all-in for 7,000. Tot wanted to raise but the table was unsure of the amount. After a short four-and-a-half minute delay, it was confirmed that he can make it 19,000, and Funkhouser called.

Tot bet on fifth and Funkhouser called. Funkhouser paired his ten on sixth and Tot folded to a bet.

Yu had many outs to improve on seventh but could not find any help as his pair of sevens were bested by the tens of Funkhouser as Yu hit the exit.
