Mixson Ends Tsang's Main Event Run

Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Cameron Mixson opened to 30,000 from early position and Dicky Tsang three-bet the button to 90,000. Once the blinds folded, Mixson shoved for around 550,000 effective, and Tsang thought about it for a while before putting his tournament life on the line.
Dicky Tsang: A?K?
Cameron Mixson: Q?Q?
The flop of Q?9?7? improved Mixson to top set and made him a huge favorite in the hand. Despite Tsang improving on the A? turn, it left him drawing dead as no card could win him the hand. A meaningless 10? completed the runout and Tsang headed to the payout desk.
