Maruti Yarlapati moves all in from middle position for his last 65,000 or so and Matthew Alexander quickly calls behind him.
Yarlapati turns over A4, while Alexander shows 99. Yarlapati gets no help from the 85285 board and he is eliminated on the money bubble.
There is some uncertainty around the tournament area whether or not they are in the money, as there are a few all-ins transpiring, including 92nd place finisher Andy Hwang’s and a big pot where Blake Purvis moved all in onthe turn. Once the dust settles on all the pots, it is determined Yarlapati is the bubble boy and the remaining 90 players are in the money.
Matthew Alexander – 825,000 (138 bb)
Maruti Yarlapati – Eliminated in 91st place for $0
With that, hand-for-hand play ends after one hand and the rest of the field is guaranteed a payday of at least $6,965.
