With the action folded to Drew Daniels in middle position, he pushed for 139,000. Mike Eise made the call on the button before Mike Zulker pushed all in from the small blind to prompt a fold from Eise.

Daniels: {8-Spades}{6-Spades}
Zulker: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

Daniels took the lead on the {9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop, but when the {A-Spades} fell on the turn his tournament life was looking close to an end.

No eight, six or straight-filler would be dealt on the river, but instead Zulker would make aces-up with the {Q-Spades} peeling.

As Daniels headed to the rail in 17th place, Zulker climbed to 1,090,000 in chips.

The next hand it would be Simmons' {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} up against Zack Fritz's {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}, and when the board blanked out Simmons hit the rail in 14th place.
