Mark Sykes Out in 17th; Yung Hwang Leads w 5.8M

Matt Haugen raises from early position to 90,000, chipleader Yung Hwang calls from the button, and Mark Sykes (pictured) moves all in from the small blind for 995,000.

Haugen asks for an exact count and tanks for a while before he folds, and then Hwang quickly calls with [AcKs]. Sykes turns over [QcQs], and it’s a race situation.

The board comes [Ad4d3dAs5h], and Hwang wins the pot with trip aces to eliminate Sykes from the tournament.

Yung Hwang  –  5,800,000  (145 bb)
Mark Sykes  –  Out in 17th Place ($18,251)
