Stephanie Chung

In only a few hands the PLO Mix field is down to four as John Cernuto and Stephanie Chung hit the rail.

Veerachai Vongxaiburana opened to the button to 25,000 and Chung moved all-in for 58,000 in the big blind. Vongxaiburana called with A♠A5♣4♠ and Chung showed AQ♠96♠. The 1045♠3♠2♠ board gave Vongxaiburana a steel wheel and the scoop. He is playing 420,000 with Chung on her way to collect $4,900.

John Cernuto

Cernuto shoved a flop of A♣J5 for 45,000 from the big blind and Jeremy Tinsley called. Cernuto had A♠K2♣2 and was up against the two pair A♦J♠72 of Tinsley. Cernuto did not improve on the 8♠ turn or Q♠ river and takes home $6,700.

Tinsley is playing 360,000 as all four players are close to even with four-handed play underway.
