Joey Couden Eliminated in 17th Place ($2,367)

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Joey Couden
Joey Couden

Joey Couden opened for 16,000 and then just called when Michael Kemeter three-bet to 55,000. Couden, who had just 25,000 back, checked the unknown flop and Kemeter bet 22,000. Couden moved in for 3,000 more and Kemeter called.

Kemeter: {10-}{10-}
Couden: {k-}{k-}

Couden was out in front and held on the turn, but then a {10-} spiked on the river to give Kemeter a set and the knockout.

Michael Dichiaro Eliminated in 16th Place ($2,367)

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Michael Dichiaro
Michael Dichiaro

Kevin Javier got his stack of 294,000 all in preflop and was flipping against Michael Dichiaro in a monster pot.

Javier: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Dichiaro: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Javier was at risk and looking to hold, which is just what he did after the board ran out a safe {3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}.

Dichiaro was left with 8,000 after the hand but went bust a short time later in 16th place.

Fredkove Flops the Joint to Double Through Javier

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action folded to Kee Fredkove on the button and he moved all in for 136,000, which Kevin Javier snap-called from the big blind.

Fredkove: {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Javier: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Fredkove was way behind but flopped the nuts on the {7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop. The {q-Diamonds} turn bumped him up to a flush and he was pushed the pot after the {8-Spades} was run out on the river.

Scott Efron raised to 40,000 from the small blind and quickly called when Arian Stolt three-bet all in for around 280,000 from the big.

Efron: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Stolt: {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Efron had the superior ace and scored the knockout after the board ran out {6-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}.

Greg Fishberg Eliminated in 14th Place ($2,367)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Greg Fishberg
Greg Fishberg

Greg Fishberg lost most of his stack after picking a bad time to bluff. He shoved the river with the board reading {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} only to see Kevin Javier snap-call off with the {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Fishberg held just the {j-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

Left with crumbs, Fishberg got the rest of it in shortly thereafter against Javier.

Javier: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Fishberg: {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

It was a flip but not after the flop came down {q-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{5-Clubs} to give Javier a club flush. The {k-Diamonds} turn left Fishberg drawing dead and he headed for the payout desk in 14th place after the meaningless {j-Diamonds} was run out on the river.

James Gilbert moved all in for 145,000 under the gun and Justin Liberto called off for 126,000 from the button. Both blinds folded and Gilbert discovered the bad news.

Gilbert: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Liberto: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

Gilbert was dominated and failed to get lucky as the board ran out {2-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Clubs}.

Gilbert was left with 13,000 but busted the very next hand when he was in the big blind.
