After starting the day with the shortest stack, Tim Kelliher battled back, doubling twice. Unfortunately for the Massachusetts native, he fell short of the final table.

Kelliher open-shoved for 2.24 million from early position, and Philip Neiman re-shoved in the hijack seat. All of the rest of the players folded.

"Good luck," someone told Neiman before the cards were revealed.

"He's the one that needs it," Neiman announced, tabling {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}.

Kelliher showed {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} for an under pair, and his odds to survive decreased when the dealer fanned {6-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn was all she wrote for Kelliher, and the {q-Spades} completed the board.

He's off to collect $9,032 from the cage, and the remaining 12 players are on break.
