"rumpthumper" Eliminates "LordRamsaySlays"

In Level 28 with blinds of 20,000/40,000 and an ante of 5,000, preflop action saw all of the chips go in the middle for a pot of 2,000,000 between "LordRamsaySlays" in middle position and "rumpthumper," who was in the small blind.

"LordRamsaySlays": {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
"rumpthumper": {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

"LordRamsaySlays" was unable to find another king on the runout as it came {3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades} and they were eliminated from the tournament. Shortly before their elimination, both "pay4medsch00l" and "Sblast2711" were also eliminated from the tournament.

Twenty-five now remain with less than two minutes left until blinds go up again.

"pay4medsch00l" Finds a Double

In Level 28 with blinds of 20,000/40,000 and an ante of 5,000, "pay4medsch00l" got all in for their last 300,000 in the cutoff against "deerpathdave," who was in the big blind.

"pay4medsch00l": {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
"deerpathdave": {k-Spades}{10-Spades}

Four bricks rolled out on the flop {4-Spades}{j-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and turn {7-Diamonds}, leaving "pay4medsch00l" in need of fading a king or a ten to stay alive. The river came {a-Clubs} to give them a pair of aces and score them the double.

In level 27 with blinds of 18,000/36,000 and an ante of 4,500, "Lanfeust" got all in preflop from the big blind and received action from "deerpathdave," who was in middle position.

"Lanfeust": {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
"deerpathdave": {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

No paint came as the board ran out {4-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades}, with "deerpathdave" finishing with tens and eights to knock out "Lanfeust" from the tournament with a first-level payout of $757.74.

In Level 26 with blinds of 16,000/32,000, "MatchupProof" opened to 64,000 in early position and "deerpathdave" clicked it back, three-betting to 96,000 in the hijack. Action made its way back to "MatchupProof," who called.

The flop fell {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and "MatchupProof" checked. "deerpathdave" made a continuation-bet of 138,000. "MatchupProof" called.

The turn came {5-Spades} and "MatchupProof" checked again. "deerpathdave" continued, firing a second barrel of 276,000. "MatchupProof" check-raised all in for around 300,000 more and "deerpathdave" immediately called.

"MatchupProof": {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}
"deerpathdave": {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

The five on the burn gave both players two pair, meaning that "deerpathdave's" kings up left "MatchupProof" with only two queens left in the deck to stay alive. Instead, the river {j-Hearts} was of no avail and they were eliminated from the tournament.

Hand #1: In Level 25 with blinds of 14,000/28,000 and an ante of 3,500, "TightTightTight" raised to 56,000 under the gun and was called by "TheKing411," who was in the cutoff.

The flop dropped {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and "TightTightTight" checked. "TheKing411 bet 60,000, sending "TightTightTight" deep into the tank. They used up all but a few seconds of their time bank and then check-raised all in for 292,000. "TheKing411" immediately called.

"TightTightTight": {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
"TheKing411": {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

"TightTightTight" was in trouble for their tournament life, needing to hit running cards to a either Broadway or a better full house. The turn came {8-Diamonds} to dash all of those hopes and the river {q-Hearts} fell behind to complete the runout, resulting in "TightTightTight" finishing in 38th place.

Hand #2: Moments later, the short-stacked "PSL16197" got all in for their last two big blinds from the big blind, having gotten action from "Luckyduck," who was on the button.

"PSL16197": {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
"Luckyduck": {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

"PSL16197" was unable to find help as the board ran out {9-Spades}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and they were eliminated on the direct bubble in 37th place. With the elimination, the 36 players remaining in the tournament are officially in the money.

In Level 25 with blinds of 14,000/28,000 and an ante of 3,500, "Burgersssss" pumped it up to 56,000 in early position and "OutOfTime" three-bet to 475,000 from the hijack, leaving just 5,000 behind. "bigcakes1" was in the big blind and reraised all in for 677,500. "Burgersssss" called and "OutOfTime" called their last 5,000.

"OutOfTime": {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
"bigcakes1": {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
"Burgersssss": {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

"Burgersssss" was able to fade the last two aces in the deck on the runout as the board came {7-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and they scored the double elimination, reducing the number of players in the field down to 38 and bringing about hand-for-hand play until two more eliminations happen.

In the meantime, "Burgersssss" also finds themselves the chip leader on the bubble with a stack of over 2.3 million after their kings held.
