Hiroki Nawa Eliminated in 14th Place ($24,130)
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Yuanzhi Cao opened up the action with a raise to 4,400,000 from middle position. Action folded to Hiroki Nawa in the big blind, who called with a short stack.
On the 5♦A♣9♠ flop, Nawa checked over to Cao, who opted for a continuation-bet of 3,500,000. After a small pause, Nawa shoved his remaining 14,800,000. Cao went deep into the tank, and eventually called it off.
Hiroki Nawa: A♠8♣
Yuanzhi Cao: 6♣6♠
Nawa had a commanding lead, which he kept on the Q♣ turn. The 6♥ river bust him out right before a $6,000 pay jump, as the night heads to a close.
