Chongxian Yang Eliminated in 11th Place; Barrett Threadgill Eliminated in 10th Place ($123,972 each)
Barrett Threadgill raised to 500,000 from the hijack and Chongxian Yang then moved all-in for his last 575,000 in the cutoff. Eelis Parssinen in the small blind called and so did Threadgill as they headed to the 8♣7♥3♦ flop.
Once Parssinen checked, Threadgill moved all-in as he only had 2,035,000 with the pot worth 2,075,000 by then. Parssinen made the call after a few seconds of consideration to put two players at risk.
Chongxian Yang: A♥K♥5♥4♠
Barrett Threadgill: A♣Q♣Q♦8♥
Eelis Parssinen: K♠J♥10♥9♦
Parssinen had plenty of outs to make a straight while Threadgill was liking the 2♣ turn to add a flush draw. Yang was not drawing dead yet either as he picked up a wheel draw. The river then brought the 10♦ and that gave Parssinen the nut straight to send two opponents to the rail.
The remaining nine players will now redraw to the unofficial final table and move their chips to the live streaming area.
