Chad Brown Eliminated in 9th Place ($12,682)

Chad Brown - 9th place
Chad Brown - 9th place

Just after Level 20 began, Chad Brown lost a large percentage of his stack in a hand in which after some thought he called a river bet by Vincent Gironda with the board showing {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}. Gironda tabled {J-Spades}{J-Clubs} and Brown mucked, left with about 35,000.

Soon after came a hand in which Brown raised from the button, Terrence Chan three-bet from the small blind, Gironda called from the big blind, and Brown called as well.

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{A-Spades}. Chan bet, Gironda called, Brown raised for just a touch more with what he had left, and Chan and Gironda both called the raise. Both remaining players then checked down the {9-Diamonds} turn and {2-Clubs} flop. Gironda turned over {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for aces, and Brown nodded in recognition as he showed {K-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a lesser pair. Chan showed as well, but the dealer swiftly mucked his hand.

Brown wished the remaining players good luck and made his way to the rail.
