George Tomescu Eliminated in 21st Place ($7,600)
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
George Tomescu raised to 100,000 in the hijack as action folded to Maher Achour in the small blind who moved all in. Matthew Davenport, with around 1,100,000 remaining, tanked for several minutes as he asked for a count of Tomescu's stack. He eventually folded, but Tomescu called for around 800,000.
George Tomescu: A♠J♦ 
Maher Achour: 7♥7♦
Tomescu was flipping for his tournament life, but Achour spiked a set on the 8♥7♠6♥ flop. The 8♣ turn improved Achour to a full house and Tomescu was already drawing dead by the 2♣ river and off to collect his 21st-place payout.
