Mark Hagendijk Eliminated in 13th Place ($8,422)

Level 26 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Mark Hagendijk came into today as one of the tournament short stacks, and unfortunately for Hagendijk he had a conflicting flight out of Las Vegas.

Consequently Hagendijk made it known to the tournament staff before play began that he was most likely not going to play a single hand today, and therefore would be blinded out of the tournament.

Down to his last 5,000-denomination chips, Hagendijk was all in for the ante on the big blind, and as per Wynn Las Vegas rules, because he was seated, his hand was mucked and Hagendijk was eliminated from the tournament in 13th place.
