Christopher Kennedy Eliminated in 12th Place ($9,300)
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
On the first hand back from break, Aaron Pinson opened to 50,000 under the gun, then snap-called when Christopher Kennedy shoved for 550,000 in the small blind.
Christopher Kennedy: A♦4♣
Aaron Pinson: A♥Q♦
Kennedy picked up a straight draw on the 2♦5♦2♠ flop, and a flush draw on the K♦ turn. The river, though, was the 8♣, and Pinson held on to win the pot and send Kennedy to the rail in 12th place.
