Final Day
Battle of the Short Stacks Eliminates Yun

Action was picked up with the three shortest stacks at Table #13 all-in, each hoping to chip up and extend their tournament run. Florencio Campomanes, who covered both Sung Jin Yun and Xin Ann Lim, had a chance to eliminate them both and boost his stack to at least the tournament average.
Sung Jin Yun: K♣ 9♦
Xin Ann Lim: A♦ A♠
Florencio Campomanes: K♦ Q♦
The dealer fanned out a 8♥ A♣ 3♥ flop, giving Lim a set and a near-certain double-up, while Yun was left drawing dead. The 5♥ turn and 8♦ river only strengthened Lim’s hand into a full house. He scooped the pot, Yun was eliminated, and Campomanes was left visibly frustrated.

Crucial Double Up for Jacobs
Florencio Campomanes opened for 24,000 in early position and was called by Sung Jin Yun in the cutoff. Benjamin Jacobs moved all in from the small blind, Campomanes quickly folded, but Yun made the call, putting Jacobs at risk.
Benjamin Jacobs: A♦ K♥
Sung Jin Yun: 9♥ 9♦
It was a classic flow when the dealer fanned out a 4♣ A♥ 3♥ flop, instantly pairing Jacobs' ace and putting him in the lead. The 8♣ turn and J♦ river changed nothing, securing Jacobs a much needed double-up.
