Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Mrityunjay Jha was one of the short stacks that managed to survive the bubble so it wasn't going to take long for him to get his stack in the middle. David Coleman raised to 8,000 in early position and was called by Peter Cross in the hijack. Jha also tagged along from the big blind.

The flop fell A♥Q♠8♠ and the action checked around to the 9♥ on the turn. Jha ripped all in for his last 10,000 and was called by Coleman.

Mrityunjay Jha: K♥6♥ All in
David Coleman: Q♣J♥

The river was the Q♦ and Jha was unable to complete his flush which sent him to the payout desk.

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

David Sheinin moved all in for 41,000 from under the gun, just hoping to pick up the blinds and ante. However, he found a call from Bin Weng in the cutoff and the cards were revealed after the other tables finished.

David Sheinin: J♥J♦ All in
Bin Weng: K♦Q♦

With Spencer Champlin already eliminated, Sheinin knew he was at least guaranteed to get some money back. The board ran out A♠9♣2♣10♠3♣ and Sheinin held on to double up and guarantee at least a full min-cash.
