Jamie Mills Eliminated in 8th Place ($6,521)

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Jamie Mills - 8th place
Jamie Mills - 8th place

Jamie Mills found herself down to her last 89,000 after losing several pots over the course of the last hour. Josh Burdick opened for 48,000 and was called by Jeff Armstrong. Mills moved all in and both players called. They would check it down all the way as the dealer put out a board of {10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{J-Hearts}{2-Hearts}.

"I have a jack," said Armstrong as he tabled {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Burdick showed {A-}{K-} and Mills shook her head as she had a chance to triple up with her {10-Spades}{9-Hearts} but the jack on the turn was her undoing. She was eliminated in eight place for $6,521.

Little Movement of Late

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

The chips have been going back and forth between the players with not much change in stacks as the action has mainly been raise and fold. They will be going on break in 20 minutes and we'll provide some up to date chip counts when they do.

Armstrong Shoves River

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Jeff Armstrong started things off preflop with a raise to 16,000 and was called by Jamie Mills. The two saw a flop of {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Armstrong checked. Mills bet 55,000 and Armstrong made the call.

The turn was the {J-Spades} and Armstrong checked again. Mills bet 85,000 this time and Armstrong called with little hesitation.

The river was the {2-Diamonds} and Armstrong announced that he was all in, which was for an effective 300,000 as he had Mills covered. The room got quiet as Mills went into the tank, the only sound the awkward shuffling of chips from Armstrong. Mills let her hand go as she told Armstrong "nice bet."

Action Flop Leads to Hahn Double

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

The chips would fly between Michael Hahn and Jeff Armstrong on a flop of {Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and for good reason as Armstrong had flopped the nuts with his {A-}{K-} while Hahn had flopped a set with his {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}.

Armstrong maintained the lead on the {9-Diamonds} turn but another nine on the river, the {9-Spades} would give Hahn a full house and the massive pot.

McEwen Doubles Through Wilson

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

We got to the table with Jesse McEwen all in and at risk on a flop of {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} with {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Libby Wilson had made the call with {A-}{J-} and her pair of jacks was in the lead. She wouldn't be able to fade McEwen's many outs though as the turn {K-Diamonds} would give him a pair of kings. He would keep the lead and double up after the dealer put out the {4-Diamonds} on the river.

McEwen doubled to 450,000 in chips which was just a bit more than Wilson ended the hand with after losing the pot.

Sam Smith Eliminated in 9th Place ($5,382)

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Sam Smith - 9th place
Sam Smith - 9th place

Sam Smith had a remarkable run as a short stack but that run has come to an end after he moved all in on a flop of {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} with {A-Hearts}{10-Spades} only to find out that it was not a good time to do that as Jamie Mills snap-called with her {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and the river was the {8-Clubs} and Smith was eliminated in ninth place for $5,382.
