Lorinda Johnson has just been eliminated in 19th place, meaning we are down to our final two tables!
We didn’t catch the action of Johnson’s final hand, but it was an exciting one which was recalled to us by the players at the table.
Apparently it started with Scott Davies min-opening preflop and Johnson calling from the blinds. On the 
flop, Johnson check-called a bet of 20,500 from Davies and a hit the turn. This time Johnson led for 22,000 and Davies raised it up to 74,000. Davies called and the board was completed with a 
.
It was here that Johnson jammed for a little under 200,000 and Davies snap-called.
Davies held 
, while Johnson had complete air (a busted flush draw) with 
.
Davies is up to a massive 700,000 in chips.

It’s been quite a while since our last elimination, but now Steven Tabb will join the departed on the rail as the 22nd-place finisher.
Tabb’s final hand saw him lead for 17,000 on the turn of a turn from the big blind position and then call off the rest of his chips when Patrick Mahoney moved all in.
When the cards were turned over, Tabb wasn’t excited to see his up against .
The river was a 
and it was all over for Tabb.
Next player out pockets $5,100.
