Vang Absorbs All of Vance's Chips
We missed the elimination of EPT4 Copenhagen champ Tim Vance, but Kou Vang, the man who sent him packing, was kind enough to fill us in on some details after the fact.
As he told it, Vance opened for 16,000 UTG+2 and Vang flatted from the hijack. Ryan Tepen came along from the big blind and it was three-way action to the rainbow flop. Tepen checked, Vance bet 21,000, and both his opponents called.
Two checks on the turn saw Vang bet 49,000 and Tepen folded. Vance then check-jammed for 200,000 and Vang snapped him off.

Vance had turned top two pair but the same card gave Vang Broadway. The river failed to fill Vance up and he hit the rail a few spots shy of the money.
Meanwhile, Pauly "Walnuts" Bianchi was also eliminated from the tournament.
