William Stanford Eliminated in 24th Place ($8,824)

Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

William Stanford opened to 140,000 from under the gun, leaving 170,000 behind, and Jiyang Gan, who covered him, defended from the big blind.
The flop came A?Q?10? and the rest of the chips quickly got in the middle.
William Stanford: A?10?3?2?
Jiyang Gan: A?K?Q?6?
The rest of the board ran out 7?3?. Neither player had a low and Gan had the better two pair to take the pot while Stanford made his exit from the tournament area.
