Defending WPTDeepStacks Hollywood Champion Jason Young

David Moses got it all in preflop for about 675,000 with Jh10h, but he ran into Trung Pham’s AdAc.

The board came 6h5h3d7c8d — Moses flopped a heart flush draw and turned a gutshot straight draw on the board for a possible chop, but the river card missed all of his outs. The pocket aces held up for Pham to win the pot and eliminate Moses in 39th place.

Trung Pham  –  2,125,000  (71 bb)
David Moses  –  Eliminated in 39th Place  ($4,389)

A short while later, Jake Schwartz raised under the gun, Alcides Gomez called UTG+1, and defending champion Jason Young called from the small blind.

The flop came 8x7x3x, and Young moved all in for about 250,000. Schwartz folded, and Gomez called with KxKx. Young turned over 5x5x, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was a Jx, the river card was an Ax, and the pocket kings held up for Gomez to win the pot and eliminate Young in 38th place.

Alcides Gomez  –  2,250,000  (75 bb)
Jason Young  –  Eliminated in 38th Place  ($4,389)
