Ben Yu Eliminated by Mesha James

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Ben Yu
Ben Yu

Action folded to Mesha James in the small blind and she raised. Ben Yu called in the big blind and the flop came {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. James bet, Yu raised, and James called.

On the {Q-Hearts} turn, James bet out and after a brief pause, Yu went all in for 3,300 total. James called and they showed down.

Yu was ahead with {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} for a pair of sixes, but James had a gut-shot straight draw with {4-Spades}{2-Spades} and got there on the {5-Clubs} river to send Yu home.

Yu, who won his WSOP bracelet in the $10,000 Limit Hold'em event in 2015, is out of this one. He still has a chance to get in the $10,000 Limit Hold'em event later in the series though.
