Ben Yu

Ben Yu got it all in preflop against Riley Fuller for Fuller's remaining stack of 240,000.

Riley Fuller: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Ben Yu: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts} and stayed clean for Fuller. Yu is now down to less than a big blind and is going to need a lot of run-good to get back to a playable stack.

Melissa Gillett Eliminated

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Melissa Gillett
Melissa Gillett

As told by Melissa Gillett, she bluffed all in and got caught on a {k-}{9-}{8-}{8-} board. Her opponent bet the turn, Gillett moved all in with her {a-}{10-}, and her opponent called, holding a {k-}. The river was a {6-} and no help to Gillett.

Gillett was in good spirits when she busted, as she has gone deep in several WSOP events this summer. For her first summer at the WSOP, she has four total cashes, including this event and a fourth place finish in Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em for a total of $149,982.

Gillett said she was planning to to play the Ladies Event, and now she has the freedom to. Expect to see her in the updates tomorrow for Event #70: $10,000 Ladies No-Limit Hold'em Championship (ladies' discounted price is $1,000).
