Yunda Xie and Liam Doyle Eliminated

Apr 22, 2024

The next preflop all-in unfolds on the outer tables. Yunda Xie has Lorenz Schollhorn on the ropes when his Heart KSpade 10 comes from behind versus Heart AHeart J on the Diamond 10Heart 4Diamond 4 flop. The Diamond 9 turn is a blank but the Club J river awards Schollhorn a double for 580,000.

Soon after that, Xie is all-in via coin flip with Heart AHeart Q and Gary Shu looks him up holding the Diamond 7Club 7.

The pair remains ahead on the Club 9Heart 5Spade 4Diamond JDiamond 9 board to reduce the field to the final 30.

Moments later, a perplexed Liam Doyle walks out from the feature table. Marc Seymour claims his chips in a pot worth more than 50 big blinds and that brings the field down to just 29. Seymour calls the three-bet shove by Doyle for around 1.4 million with Club ASpade 8 and Doyle has pocket nines, which go down in flames when an ace hits the flop.

Gary Shu – 4,400,000 (88 bb)
Marc Seymour – 3,400,000 (68 bb)
Lorenz Schollhorn – 1,350,000 (27 bb)
Yunda Xie – Eliminated in Place (AU$11,800 / USD 7,574)
