Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Action folded to Linh Tran on the button and he moved all-in for 89,000. Takayuki Iwamoto reshoved from the small blind, the big blind got out of the way, and the two players tabled their hands.
Iwamoto: 
Tran: 
Tran found himself trailing Iwamoto's pocket nines and needed help from the deck in order to preserve his tournament life. The flop fell 
, giving Iwamoto a set to further extend his lead and leave Tran in terrible shape. The 
turn and 
river changed nothing and Iwamoto took the pot to send Tran to the rail.
While this hand was in progress, Yang Zhang was also eliminated on the next table over.
