Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Scott Fitz-Gerald
Scott Fitz-Gerald

Ryan Eriquezzo opened under the gun for 18,000 and was called by Patrick Tynion Jr on the button, along with Scott Fitz-Gerald from the big blind.

The flop fell {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} was checked to Tynion Jr who fired out 35,000 and was called by Fit-Gerald while Eriquezzo folded.

Fitz-Gerald check-called Tynion Jr's 40,000 continuation bet after the {4-Diamonds} turn to see the board pair with the {6-Spades} river.

Fitz-Gerald checked one last time and Tynion Jr moved all in. Fitz-Gerald went into the tank for a few minutes as he was so close to the money.

After some contemplation, Fitz-Gerald mucked his hand and Tynion Jr tabled {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}.

Aubrey Williams

Right before the break, Aubrey Williams flopped a staright to crack Ronan Teixeira's pocket kings to send her over the milly mark and did it once again to burst the bubble as Kevin Lutz gave PokerNews the hand details.

Williams opened for 20,000 from the hijack and the cutoff player jammed for 66,000 getting called by Williams.

Aubrey Williams:[ jd9h]
All-In Player: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Williams was behind but turned two-pair on a {6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{2-Clubs} board to burst the bubble.

McGuinness Turns King to Eliminate Keppol

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ken Keppol
Ken Keppol

Ken Keppol open-jammed from the small blind and was called by John McGuinness from the big blind.

Ken Keppol: {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}
John McGuinness: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

It was a race with Keppol holding the made hand and nothing changed after the {q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop.

The river however, paired McGuinness with the {k-Spades} and Keppol's tournament ended after the {j-Spades} river completed the board.
