Peter Yang Eliminated in 16th Place ($58,298)
Petre Ionescu opened from under the gun to 550,000. Yanting Jiang came along with a call from the cutoff, but Peter Yang wanted to play for more and opted to three-bet to 2,150,000. Ionescu bowed out with a fold, but Jiang made the call to make it heads-up pot.
The 4♣7♦K♣ flop fanned out before Yang continued for 1,400,000. Jiang countered by shoving all-in to put Yang to a decision for his tournament life.
Yang went into the tank for a significant amount of time before he decided on a call to put himself at risk for approximately 9,800,000 total.
Peter Yang: Q♥Q♣
Yanting Jiang: A♣10♣
Yang made the right call, but Jiang was far from out of the running as she held the overcard with the ace and a flush draw to boot.
Jiang got there immediately on the turn when the A♦ peeled to give her a pair of aces. Yang began to get up from his seat as he was drawing slim with one card to go.
The 2♣ river upgraded Jiang to a flush to eliminate Yang in 16th place. Yang earned $58,298 for his finish.
