Bin Weng Eliminated in 8th Place ($14,500)
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alexander Wiggins opened to 80,000 from under the gun, and it folded to the small blind Bin Weng, who three-bet all in for 600,000. After the big blind folded, Wiggins sat in the tank, making a decision for the majority of his chips, but eventually found the call to put Weng at risk.
Bin Weng: A?2? 
Alexander Wiggins: A?J?
As soon as Wiggins made the call, Weng said "I didn't see your open, I thought it was blind versus blind". It was an unfortunate mistake for Weng, who was dominated by the bigger ace of Wiggins. When the board ran out 5?J?8?A?K? Wiggins improved to two pair, aces and jacks and eliminated Weng in 8th place.
