It didn’t take long for us to have our first casualty on the final table, as Quyen Dao lost his stack in a two-part process. In the first hand, Quyen open-shoved just over 600,000 from middle position, and was called by Levi Stevens in the big blind, who only had 535,000.

Two hands later, Quyen was all-in with his remaining 140,000, and once again in a tough spot, as his was called by the of Rodney Ramalho. Much like the previous hand, the board was of no help to Quyen, showing , and just like that his Main Event was over.
10th place: Quyen Dao – $7,120
