Antoine Goutard raised in early position to 400,000 and the action folded around to Joseph Bowers in the small blind. He jammed for 1,425,000 and the big blind folded before Goutard gave it some thought. Eventually, Goutard made the call and both hands were exposed.

Joseph Bowers: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Antoine Goutard: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, giving Bowers top pair and Goutard a flush draw. The {3-Hearts} hit the turn changing nothing, but the {3-Diamonds} on the river completed the flush for Goutard and Bowers was eliminated in 21st place for $6,558.

Douglas Eliminated by Dimitrijevic in the Battle of the Blinds

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Champie Douglas
Champie Douglas

The action folded around to Champie Douglas in the small blind and he moved all-in for his remaining 150K or so and the big blind tanked which would come into question by the players later.

Dimitrijevic counted out the chips bearly having Doulas covered before deciding to call and putting Douglas at risk for his tournament life.

Champie Douglas: {k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Paul Dimitrijevic: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

A few players at the table questioned the long tank and the board would run out {9-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{a-Spades} which would be no help to Douglas and he would be eliminated.
