Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Yunhan Yang raised to 1,600,000 from the hijack and Manjunath Mulinti called with only 1,100,000 in the big blind.

Manjunath Mulinti: Q9 All in
Yunhan Yang: AQ

Yang was ahead with ace-high. The dealer flopped 244, leaving Mulinti to hope for one of his cards to hit the board as he videoed the action on his phone.

But the dealer peeled a K turn and a K river. With no one hitting the board, Yang took the pot and Mulinti left with his video as a constant reminder of his elimination.
