Xiaoyin He had a whirlwind of hands that sent him up and quickly down in 19th place. A couple of those hands were against Zong Xin Liu. The first one went Xiaoyin’s way with his full house 5♠ 5♦ on a board 5♥ 7♥ 7♣ 4♠ A♠.
The next hand he plunged with Zong’s A♦ 8♦ both hitting the board to dust his A♣ K♥. The board was 4♦ 8♣ Q♠ A♠ 7♣ with betting at every stage.
With just over 50k behind, Xiaoyin put it all in and had to fade two players Lin Yusheng and Mai Te. His K♠ Q♠ didn’t hit on a board A♥ 6♦ 5♣ 2♥ 4♦ and he fell to Yusheng’s A♠ 3♥ straight.
We are down to the final 18 players. Two tables remaining.
