Jason Koon opened to 80,000 and Roman Valerstein called in the small blind. Ting Ho moved all in over the top for 1 million and Koon released after a moment’s thought.

Valerstein took a minute himself before he called.

Ho: AdKd
Valerstein: ThTd

Ho needed to hit to stay alive and nailed the KsJd8d flop. The reprieve was only temporary as the turn came Tc. Ho still had outs to double but missed the 6c river to exit in 16th place.

Roman Valerstein – 2,185,000 (55 bb)
Ting Ho – Eliminated in 16th place ($35,000)
