Yueqi Zhu: XxXx / 10♣8♥3♥9♥ / Xx
David Williams: XxXx / 4♥9♠2♠A♣ / Xx
Justin Smith bet on sixth and seventh street to get called by Yueqi Zhu as well as David Williams. He announced a low and straight turning over the 5♣3♣4♠ and Zhu mucked. Williams flashed the 8♠5♠2♥ and lost a portion of his stack.
Limit Hold'em
Williams then took on Ali Eslami on a board of Q♥5♦2♦3♠J♥ on which the former bet the turn and called a raise, then check-called a bet on the river. Williams tabled A♦J♦ for a missed straight and flush draw that rivered a pair of jacks. However, Eslami had the best of it with K♠Q♠ for top pair to leave Williams on fumes.
No longer in contention for the time being are Jesse Lonis and Dzmitry Urbanovich.
