Mic Eliminated in 2nd Place ($78,000)

Level 23
: Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante

Mic raised it up from the button to 550,000 and Yao Xiao then pushed all-in from the big blind with the covering stack. There was no snap-call but Mic eventually pushed his chips over the line and then immediately sighed when the cards were exposed.
Mic: 9?9?
Yao Xiao: 10?10?
There was a collective uproar from the rail when Wang's lead grew further on the Q?10?3? flop. It was all over on the 4? turn to make the 7? river a formality, sending Mic to the rail in second place for $78,000.
Xiao was the chip leader for a long time and ended up as the winner for $131,000. A recap of today's action is to follow.
