Naoya Kihara Eliminated in 9th Place ($46,575)
Niveau 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Bryce Yockey opened to 200,000 from early position and Farid Jattin three-bet to 625,000 from the hijack. Naoya Kihara four-bet shoved for 2,300,000 from the cutoff, forcing a fold from Yockey while Jattin made the call to put Kihara at risk.
Naoya Kihara: A♦A♠Q♦3♣ 
Farid Jattin: A♣Q♣10♦3♦
Kihara was ahead with his aces but Jattin picked up the nut-flush draw on the K♣9♥7♣ flop and then drilled the flush on the 4♣ turn, leaving Kihara drawing dead. After the K♠ river was dealt Kihara made his exit from the tournament area while Jattin dragged in a sizable pot.
