Level 23
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Hiroyuki Noda got his short stack in the middle before the flop against both Weikuo Hsiao and Xingbiao Zhu, both of whom had him covered.
Zhu and Hsiao checked all the way down as the board ran out 
. Noda announced "queen high" and Hsiao tabled 
, which had both players beat since Zhu flipped over 
, so Hsiao took the pot to end Noda's deep run in this tournament.
With Noda's elimination, the remaining nine players have reached the unofficial final table. The clock is presently paused and the final table seat draw will be posted shortly.
