Yi Klassen Eliminated in 8th Place ($13,276)
Roland Israelashvili opened on the button and Robert Wells three-bet the small blind before Yi Klassen four-bet from the big blind.
Both Israelashvili and Wells called.
All three players checked the K?8?5? flop to see the 7? turn, where Wells fired a bet. Israelashvili raised out of turn while the action was on Klassen. After a few moments, Klassen mucked her hand, leaving just 5,000 behind. Wells made the call.
The 4? completed the board, and Wells check-called another bet from Israelashvili.
Israelashvili tabled 9?6? for the nut straight, and Wells showed K?J? for top pair and a busted flush draw.
The following hand Klassen was able to triple her 5,000 to 15,000, but was eliminated the very next hand with 8?6? after flopping a pair of eights but losing to Israelashvili's pair of queens with Q?4?.
