Loi Hoang Eliminated in 9th Place ($6,284)
Level 26
: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
On a three-way flop of 2?5?6?, Michael Zuro led out for 500,000 which prompted a fold from Marcos Webb but then Loi Hoang quickly shoved all in for slightly more.
Zuro made the call to put him at risk and the cards were tabled.
Loi Hoang: 7?7?
Michael Zuro: 4?4?
"Well, I need a three," Zuro admitted as he realized he was behind, and the turn 7? further improved Hoang to top set.
Unfortunately for Hoang, the river came the unexpectedly brutal 8? to give Zuro a straight to take the pot, sending him to the rail as the first final table casualty.
