After losing a big all-in hand against Jeremy Becker, Charles Gomez is forced all in from the big blind the next hand — 75,000 to the ante, and 75,000 to his big blind.

Loni Hui raised from the cutoff to 150,000, and everyone else folded.

Gomez showed 6s5c, and he needed to improve to stay alive against Hui’s AhKh.

The board came 10s9h6cQdQc — Gomez paired his six on the flop, Hui turned a gutshot straight draw, and the river card was a blank. Gomez won the pot with two pair, queens and sixes, to double up in chips.

Charles Gomez  –  275,000  (4 bb)
Loni Hui  –  4,400,000  (59 bb)

The next hand, Hui raised from the hijack to 150,000, Gomez moved all in from the small blind for 275,000, and Hui called with Ad3d.

Gomez turned over Qd5d, and once again needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 8d4h4c6sKs, and Gomez turned a gutshot straight draw, but improved no further. Hui won the pot with her ace to eliminate Gomez in 11th place.

Loni Hui  –  4,800,000  (64 bb)
Charles Gomez  –  Eliminated in 11th Place  ($56,000)
