Shkumbin Alickaj shoved his remaining stack of ~150k from early position and action folded to Solomon Yi on the button. Yi 3-bet to 400k total to isolate the shorter-stack. Andrew Munier woke up with a hand in the big blind and went with it for 457k. Yi called and would have two players at risk.

Yi K♥K♦ vs Munier J♠J♣ vs Alickaj 9♦7♦

Yi flops a set and turns a full-house to completely shut-out his two opponents. He chips up to ~1.8M.

With that double elimination, the field is now down to 27 players and there will be a complete re-draw. Results for 28th-36th will be posted shortly
