Anthony Maio Eliminated in 12th Place ($2,607)

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Anthony Maio
Anthony Maio

Justin Young opened for a raise and Anthony Maio moved all in for a little more than 130,000 with {A-Spades}{9-Spades}. Young made the call with {10-}{10-} and the board would run clean for Young to give him the pot and send Maio to the rail in 12th place.

At the other table, a short stacked Yuval Harosh doubled through Bob Hwang when his {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs} would hold up against Hwang's {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}.

We get to the action with 160,000 in the pot and both Jeff Madsen and Michael Cohen checking the {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} board. The river was the {6-Hearts} and Cohen checked to Madsen who made a bet of 71,700. Cohen made the call and mucked when he saw that Madsen had hit the flush with his {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Emad Alabsi Eliminated in 16th Place ($1,862)

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Emad Alabsi
Emad Alabsi

Justin Young started things off with a raise to 10,500 and Emad Alabsi raised it 50,000 more. It was folded back to Young, and knowing Alabsi was committed, he moved all in and was quickly called by Alabsi.

Young had the goods with {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and Alabsi could only shake his head, knowing he was likely going to be eliminated soon, as he turned over {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. Alabsi would get some hope when the board came {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} but the {2-Clubs} on the river would crush that dream.

"Plays itself," said Young after the hand.
