Players Club member Jean-Philippe Piquette has been eliminated from the tournament in a really ugly hand that also eliminated Maxime Laberge while giving a huge boost to Chang Hwan Sohn.
Dean Murphy opened the action in early position with a raise to 5K. Chang, sitting in seat 2, 3-bet a huge 44K, and Maxime (in seat 3) shoved over the top for what we would eventually learn was 78K. Jean-Philippe then insta-jammed his marginally larger stack (from seat 4) and it folded back around to Chang, who asked for counts of the all-in bets and then went in the tank.
Eventually his math told him that although he was sure he had the worst hand he had to call anyhow, and so he called.
Chang: 
Maxime: 
Jean-Philippe: 
The flop was safe for the aces: 
, as was the turn 
. The river was a disaster though: 
gave Chang a set and sent both Maxime and Jean-Philippe to the showers.
