Voulgaris, Paur Out; 22 Remain

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

We just had two more eliminations in quick succession. That makes eight already this level, and we've still 15 minutes to go.

First Haralabos Voulgaris was all in with {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} against the {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} of Massimiliano Martinez. The board came {J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, and Voulgaris was eliminated in 24th place.

Then Taylor Paur committed the last of his short stack with {K-Clubs}{10-Spades} and needed help versus Brendon Rubie's {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. But the five community cards brought no such help to Paur, coming {9-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and sending Paur out in 23rd.
