Xiaoyao Ma Eliminated in 5th Place ($39,428)
Livello 18
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Xiaoyao Ma jammed for 1,035,000 from the hijack and the action folded to Mike Leah in the big blind. Leah peeled one card as he announced he had a 'four-side', meaning a nine or a ten. He looked at his second card and then told the table he'll need a minute. About 40 seconds passed as he eyed the other stacks on the table and eventually made the call.
Xiaoyao Ma: K♣J♦ 
Mike Leah: K♦10♣
"I knew it was close," Leah said as he saw the cards.
The A♦5♥2♦ flop changed nothing, but the 10♦ turn was a money card for Leah as he paired his ten and picked up a flush draw. The A♣ paired the board on the river, and Ma stood up from the table.
