In the previous hand, Fu Wong called the barrels of John Kabbaj and then folded on the river of a board to leave himself with about one big blind.
The very next hand he was all in for 19,000 out of the big blind and the action folded to Mike Leah on the button. Leah raised to 40,000 and Christopher McHugh called in the small blind.
On the flop, McHugh check-called 20,000 and then check-raised from 40,000 to 80,000 once the turn appeared. Leah folded and we proceeded to the showdown:
McHugh:
Wong:
Only a low card could save Wong from elimination to chop the pot but the was of no help to see him depart in 10th place. The remaining players now get moved to the nine-handed unofficial feature table and the live stream without hole cards takes place with a five minute delay.
Action folded to Mike Leah on the button and he raised to 30,000. Christopher McHugh then three-bet to 45,000 from the small blind, the big folded, and Leah called to see a flop. McHugh bet, Leah called, and the appeared on the turn.
McHugh bet 30,000, Leah called, and after the call was made the completed the board on the river. McHugh immediately bet 30,000 and Leah took his time before acting. His body language suggested that he knew he was in trouble, but he made the call nonetheless. Sure enough, McHugh rolled over the for a rivered flush and Leah simply mucked.
Andrey Zhigalov was left very short stacked after he called the completion on third, checked the fourth and then called the bets on fifth and sixth before checking seventh versus Joe Tehan. The Russian was chasing a low but could not get there to get scooped.

One hand later the game type switched.
Omaha Hi-Low
Joe Tehan raised to 30,000 and Mike Leah called, Zhigalov was all in for 24,000 from the button and Fu Wong also called in the big blind. The flop was checked through to Leah and he bet 15,000, only Wong called. Leah then bet the turn and Wong check-called 30,000 to do so again after the river.
Tehan had for a six high straight and 6-5 low, Wong won the hi pot with for a nine high straight and Zhigalov mucked his cards. The dealer flipped over his and the cash game specialist with the PokerStars nickname "gigaloff" has been eliminated in 11th place.
Mike Leah had the bring-in with the (yes, a nine) and then called when John Kabbaj completed with the . Leah proceeded to call bets on fourth through sixth streets before both players checked on seventh.

"One pair," Kabbaj said and showed nines. It turned out to be good as Leah showed he hand unimproved eights from the get go.
In a previous hand, Chris Reslock folded after a turn when Erik Seidel bet into him and he was left pretty short. Two hands later, Seidel raised to 30,000 from early position and Tyson Marks three bet to 45,000. Reslock called all in out of the big blind for less than that and Seidel tossed in the extra chips.
On the flop, Marks continued and got called by Seidel. Both then checked the turn and Marks bet 30,000 on the river. Seidel folded and both players turned over their cards.
Reslock:
Marks:
The trips deuces of Marks scooped the pot and Reslock could not survive his 10th all in of the day. He takes home $14,605 for his 12th place finish.
