Carlos Ponce Eliminated in 10th Place ($9,654)

We thought we we're going to be combining tables at ten, but as one elimination occurred at Table 1, another hand developed on Table 2. It began whenJulian Menendez opened for 80,000 under the gun only to have Carlos Ponce move all in from the button for about 600,000 total. When action was on Jonathan Monsalves in the blind, he moved all in over the top!

Menendez got out of the way, leaving Ponce and Monsalves to do battle for the approximately 1.3 million pot.

Showdown
Monsalves: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Ponce: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

It was a cooler for Ponce, no doubt about it. All he could do was shake his head as the dealer put out the {4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{10-Hearts} on the flop, followed by the {4-Diamonds} turn. "King," Ponce shouted as if trying to will the river. Unfortunately for him, it was all in vain as the {8-Clubs} bricked.

Ponce became our 10th-place finisher, bringing us to the official final table, with Monsalves leading the pack. Meanwhile, the tournament is on a short break as the players combine tables and a ceremony is held.
