Eric Afriat, Xuan Liu, and Stephen Caplan become involved in preflop action that eventually sees Caplan all in for his last 21,700 versus Afriat with Liu stepping aside.

Afriat has [Kd][10d] and Caplan [6d][6c], and the latter stands and says "It’s been nice playing with you guys" even before the dealer spreads the [Ac][Kc][3d] flop to put Afriat in front. But before Caplan can move any farther from the table the [6s] falls on the turn, giving him a set and making the [5s] river no matter.

Caplan retakes his seat here at the start of Level 11.  Meanwhile both Afriat and Liu continue to have big stacks as they move into the final three levels of the evening.

Eric Afriat – 182,000 (152 bb)
Xuan Liu – 127,000 (106 bb)
Stephen Caplan – 44,000 (37 bb)
