Kevin Gerhart Eliminated in 14th Place ($10,276)

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Kevin Gerhart - 14th Place
Kevin Gerhart - 14th Place

Kevin Gerhart committed his last 31,000 from the hijack and was called by Erle Mankin and James Chen in the blinds.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Mankin checked. Chen threw out a bet, and after a short deliberation, Mankin mucked.

Chen: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Gerhart: {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Gerhart was in trouble with Chen flopping a straight. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn gave Gerhart outs to a full house, but it wasn't to be, as the {7-Clubs} completed the board.

Aron Dermer Eliminated in 16th Place ($8,246)

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Aaron Dermer - 16th Place
Aaron Dermer - 16th Place

Gary Vick raised from under the gun before Dustin Sitar reraised from the cutoff. Aron Dermer then moved all in for 92,000 from the small blind as the decision fell back on Vick. He four-bet and Sitar called.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Vick quickly bet out. Sitar thought for a moment then mucked.

Vick: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}
Dermer: {j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{k-Spades}

"King or a queen," ask Dermer, as he stood up from his chair.

"I'm dead," Dermer declared, after the dealer produced the {a-Hearts} on the turn sealing his fate.

The meaningless {6-Clubs} completed the board and Dermer was sent to the rail.

Jim Collopy Eliminated in 17th Place ($8,246)

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Jim Collopy
Jim Collopy

Jim Collopy lost a massive pot to drop to a short stack and then was eliminated in a succession of two hands. In the first hand, Collopy faced off against Benjamin Zamani and Ziya Rahim.

The board read {5-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} and action checked to Rahim, who bet. Both Zamani and Collopy called. The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and action checked to Rahim who bet again. Both players called.

On the {K-Spades} river, action checked all the way around to Zamani on the button. He bet and both Collopy and Rahim called. Rahim showed {A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} to take the low end of the pot. Zamani showed {A-Spades}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{J-Hearts} to take the high side of the pot with a flush. Collopy held on to his cards for about 30 seconds, trying to find a way to take any side of the pot, but he couldn't and he mucked his hand.

The very next hand, Collopy raised. He was called by Dustin Sitar in the blinds.

On the {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop, Sitar checked. Collopy bet. Sitar raised, and Collopy called. The turn was the {Q-Hearts} and Sitar bet. Collopy moved all in and Sitar called.

Sitar showed {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} for a pair of queens with a straight draw. Collopy showed {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{X-} for a flush draw. The flush did not come in when the {5-Hearts} came on the river and he was eliminated from the tournament.
