Xuan Liu moves all in from the cutoff for 315, Triet Nguyen calls from the small blind, and WPT Champions Club member Matthew Wantman moves all in over the top from the big blind for about 1,715,000.

Nguyen uses one of his Time Chips to tank for nearly a minute before he folds.

Liu turns over Club KHeart 10, and needs to improve to stay alive against Wantman’s Spade JClub J.

The board comes Club ASpade 3Spade 2Club QSpade A, and Liu turns a gutshot straight draw, but improves no further. Wantman wins the pot with his pocket jacks to eliminate Liu in 26th place.

Triet Nguyen  –  1,000,000  (40 bb)
