Shuang Luo Eliminated in 2nd Place ($125,100)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Maksim Shornikau opened to 600,000 and Shuang Luo defended from the big blind.
The flop came J?8?3? and both players checked leading to the Q? on the turn. Shornikau bet 800,000 and Luo moved all in for 3,500,000. Shornikau snap-called to put Luo at risk.
Shuang Luo: J?8?
Maksim Shornikau: Q?5?
Luo was a massive favorite with two pair but the 5? river gave Shornikau a bigger two pair to take the final pot of the tournament, the title and the top prize of $177,500.
