Mark Kroon Eliminated in 16th Place ($9,960)

Mark Kroon was under the gun and moved all in for his last 61,000. Action folded to Brandon Riha in the small blind and he attempted to isolate Kroon by raising to 125,000. However, Sean Getzwiller was in the big blind and had other plans. He moved all in for about 650,000 and was called immediately by Riha.

Kroon: {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Riha: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Getzwiller: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

It was Jacks against Ace-King again, except this time it was Riha that needed to catch up. He failed to do so when the board ran out {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}{q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and all of the sudden Getzwiller was vaulted to the top of the leaderboard.
