Ofer Gutman Eliminated in 8th Place ($37,972)
Level 40
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Ofer Gutman in the cutoff opened to 3,500,000 and Chongxian Yang in the big blind called to see a flop.
The flop came 2♥9♥4♠. Yang checked the action to Gutman, who shoved all-in for 10,800,000. Yang went into the tank. He separated the chips for a call but continued to mull things over. He finally made the call, taking them to showdown.
Ofer Gutman: K♦K♣
Chongxian Yang: 9♠7♠
Yang hit the board with top pair but couldn't beat Gutman's pocket kings. The A♣ turn was peeled, then the river 7♦ evoked a groan of sympathy for Gutman, as Yang caught himself a two-pair on the river.
