Jean-Noel Thorel Eliminated in 3rd Place ($182,188)
Nível 25
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel moved all in for 1,790,000 from the button and Dong Chen called from the small blind to put Thorel at risk.
Jean-Noel Thorel: K♣10♠
Dong Chen: A♦A♥
Chen was far in the lead with two red aces and remained so with top set on the A♠5♦4♣ flop. The J♣ turn gave Thorel a gutshot straight draw for some outs but the 7♣ river was a blank. Thorel's deep run came to an end in third place while Chen scored another final table knockout, giving him roughly 90 percent of the total chips in play going into his heads-up duel against Santerne.
