In Level 15 with blinds of 2,500/5,000 and an ante of 625, Stanton "Stonniepokes" Tentnowski open-jammed in the hijack for 39,000 and received a call from Matt "MattEMenz" Mendez, who was in the small blind.

as Mendez unnecessarily improved to a pair of deuces and earned the pot and the knockout, leaving Tentnowski momentarily dry on chips as he quickly re-entered for what could be one final shot at a run in the tournament in the closing minutes of the registration period.
