Level 49 : 300,000/600,000, 75,000 ante

The sixth-place elimination of "shippp_it" was not broadcasted on the live stream as 888poker moved their stream from YouTube to Twitch.

However, what we do know is that "shippp_it" was down to less than two big blinds when they hit the rail for a hefty $3,120 payout for their $55 buy-in.
