Kenney Felts Seidel

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

A few minutes after Brynn Kenney doubled up Humberto Brenes he called Erik Seidels all in. This time he took down the pot though as Seidel could not connect with the board after shoving {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} from the button. Kenney's {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} was good after the board came {10-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} and Seidel was eliminated.

Double KO for Laka

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Edwin Pairavi shipped all in for 40,500 from early position and David Laka just flat-called directly to his left. Heidi May also moved all in for 41,000 on the button and Laka had to call just 500 more before the cards were tabled.

David Laka: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Heidi May: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Edwin Pairavi: {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

The flop came {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} which gave May some more outs but Laka was still in the lead. The {10-Clubs} landed on the turn and the {a-Clubs} completed the board. Although May hit her ace and Pairavi hit a flush, Laka made the best flush and eliminated both of his opponents.

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Kristen Bicknell
Kristen Bicknell

Matthew Parry was under the gun and shoved all in for 67,000. The action folded around to Kristen Bicknell in the big blind who quickly made the call. The hands were held face down until the action at all of the other tables was complete and when they were tabled, Parry was in bad shape.

Kristen Bicknell: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Matthew Parry: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

The flop came {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{7-Hearts} and Bicknell held a commanding lead with her two pair. The {6-Diamonds} on the turn left Parry drawing dead to the {j-Diamonds} on the river. Parry quickly exited the tournament on the money bubble and the remaining 78 players are all guaranteed $7,860.
