Ryan Koontz Eliminated in 13th Place ($2,740)

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 3,000 ante
Ryan Koontz - 13th place
Ryan Koontz - 13th place

Ryan Koontz was short-stacked and got it all in with {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} first to act from late position. He ran into the hot hand of Joel Nimmo, however, who made the call out of the big blind with {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

Things looked good for Koontz after the {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop and {7-Hearts} turn but the river was the {K-Clubs} to give Nimmo trips.

"Atta boy," laughed Koontz with a smile on his face. He was eliminated in 13th place for $2,740.

Moradi Doubles Through Presley

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 3,000 ante

Terry Presley opened for a raise from early position and it was folded to Saied Moradi in the blinds who moved all in for 163,000 total. Presley made the call and Moradi stood and said "oops, bad timing" as he turned over {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. He was drawing live to Presley's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and would hit one of his cards on the {J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and the river was the {8-Spades} and Moradi doubled up to 350,000 in chips.

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Jesse Brown - 16th place
Jesse Brown - 16th place

After losing a race to Randy Murfin that doubled Murfin up, Jesse Brown would get his chips in good against Joel Nimmo holding {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} to Nimmo's {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}.

The flop came {J-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} to give Nimmo a pair of jacks. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and Brown merely needed to fade a king or jack on the river to double up. The river was the {J-Clubs} and the table moaned as the ever hot Nimmo continued his unbelievable run.

Brown was eliminated in 16th place for $2,078.

Steve Eoff - 17th place
Steve Eoff - 17th place

We didn't catch the pre-flop action but Steve Eoff was all in and at risk with {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} against the {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades} of Jesse Brown. The flop gave Eoff some hope as it came {K-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. The turn card would hit him but it was the case ace, the {A-Clubs}, to give Brown a lock on the hand. Eoff was eliminated in 17th place for $2,078.

Lou Barlow Eliminated in 18th Place ($2,078)

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Lou Barlow - 18th place
Lou Barlow - 18th place

Joel Nimmo, who had raised the previous three hands and showed a pair each time, opened for a fourth consecutive time. Lou Barlow moved all in and it was folded back to Nimmo who made the call with yet another pair, this time {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. He was behind, however, as Barlow held {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.

That lead would change quickly when the first card out of the dealers hands was the {J-Diamonds}. The rest of the board ran out {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Barlow was eliminated in 18th place while Nimmo became the first player to top the one million chip mark.

Matt Newcombe Eliminated in 19th Place ($1,700)

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Matt Newcombe - 19th place
Matt Newcombe - 19th place

A short-stacked Matt Newcombe moved all in first to act from the small blind and was quickly called by Patrick Dorothy out of the big blind. Dorothy had {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and was well ahead of Newcombe and his {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

The flop came {6-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} to give Newcombe a gutshot straight draw. He paired his ten on the {10-Spades} turn meaning any ten or a non-spade eight or seven would give him the winner.

"Paint," said Dorothy, not wanting Newcombe to suck out on him.

The river was the {A-Diamonds} and Newcombe was eliminated in 19th place for $1,700.
