Jim Willerson Eliminated in 14th Place ($20,663)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Jonathan Hilton was all in and at risk preflop for 124,000 with {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} against the {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} of Ashly Butler. Hilton held as the board came {7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, doubling up, while Butler fell to 70,000.

A few hands later, Hilton min-raised from under the gun, Jim Willerson moved all in for 89,000 on the button, and Max Steinberg cold four-bet to 165,000 from the small blind. Butler unhappily folded in the big blind, Hilton moved all in for 293,000, and Steinberg snap-called.

Hilton: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Steinberg: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Willerson: {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}

Butler announced that he folded two eights.

The {5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop didn't change much, and neither did the {8-Spades} on the turn, although it would have had Butler decided to commit the rest of his stack. Hilton faded the river as well, as the {3-Hearts} completed the board, and Willerson was eliminated.

Hilton more than doubled to 680,000 chips, and Steinberg was left with 195,000.
