Jin Lee Eliminated in 12th Place ($10,490)

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jin Lee
Jin Lee

Chip leader Brandon Lulov opened for 90,000 from the hijack and the short-stacked Jin Lee called from the small blind.

Lee then checked the {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop and Lulov continued for 40,000. Lee check-raised all in for around 400,000 and Lulov snap-called.

Brandon Lulov: {j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Jin Lee: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Lee had flopped middle pair with top kicker but Lulov was ahead with bottom two pair.

Neither the {5-Hearts} turn nor {7-Spades} river changed a thing and Lee was the first player to fall on Day 3.

Tom Revello Eliminated in 11th Place ($10,490)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Tom Revello
Tom Revello

Tom Revello moved all in for 675,000 from the hijack and Christian Harder jammed over the top from the small blind.

Tom Revello: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Christian Harder: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Revello had just lost a flip holding ace-king and now he was looking to survive it with his pocket pair. That didn't happen though as the {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{k-Spades} flop gave Harder a firm lead.

Neither the {10-Hearts} turn nor {3-Clubs} river helped Revello and he hit the rail in 11th place.

Dennis Zollo Eliminated in 10th Place ($10,490)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Dennis Zollo
Dennis Zollo

With around 800,000 in the pot and a board reading {5-Spades}{a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, Sam Ganzfried got his stack of 795,000 all in against Dennis Zollo, who barely had him covered.

Sam Ganzfried: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Dennis Zollo: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The case ace on the flop was a bit of a cooler, and Zollo was left with just 25,000 after the {k-Hearts} was run out on the river.

He more than doubled it by winning the very next hand, but he went bust in the one after that. It happened when he moved all in under the gun for 125,000 and Jason Deutsch three-bet to 250,000 from the small blind to chase out Christian Harder in the big.

Jason Deutsch: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Dennis Zollo: {a-Spades}{3-Clubs}

The {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop didn't do Zollo any favors, but the {3-Diamonds} turn actually gave him the lead. Unfortunately for him, it was short-lived as the {4-Diamonds} river put four diamonds on the board to give Deautch a winning flush.

Zollo's elimination in 10th place brings about the final table redraw. Stay tuned for the lineup with updated chip counts.

Parker Rodriguez Eliminated in 9th Place ($12,557)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Parker Rodriguez
Parker Rodriguez

Christian Harder raised to 115,000 from middle position and was met by an all-in three-bet to 825,000 from Parker Rodriguez in the hijack. Action folded back to Harder and he made a quick call.

Parker Rodriguez: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Christian Harder: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

It was a flip and Rodriguez was looking to improve to stay alive. That proved easier said than done though as the board ran out an unhelpful {5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

Eric Most Eliminated in 8th Place ($16,738)

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Eric Most
Eric Most

Brandon Lulov raised to 180,000 from the cutoff only to have Eric Most three-bet jam for approximately 2 million from the button. Both blinds folded and Lolov snap-called.

Brandon Lulov: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Eric Most: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Lolov had the goods and Most didn't get so much as a sweat as the board ran out a dry {2-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} to send him out the door in eighth place.

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Christian Harder
Christian Harder

Action folded around to Brandon Lulov in the small blind and he simply moved all in to put the pressure on the short-stacked Christian Harder, who called off for approximately 600,000 from the big.

Christian Harder: {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
Brandon Lulov: {a-Clubs}{6-Spades}

It was a flip but not after the {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop paired Lulov and left Harder looking for a five. The {a-Diamonds} turn improved Lulov to trips while the {9-Hearts} river wound up being the last card Harder would see in this Parx Big Stax 1100.

Brandon Lulov Eliminated in 6th Place ($25,295)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Brandon Lulov
Brandon Lulov

Mike Cohen raised to 250,000 from the hijack only to have Brandon Lulov three-bet jam for 1.88 million from the button. Both blinds folded and Cohen asked for an exact count before spiking in a call.

Mike Cohen: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Brandon Lulov: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

It was a flip with Lolov looking to improve to stay alive. The {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} flop didn't do it for him, and while the {j-Diamonds} turn didn't either, it did give him an added flush draw to go with his overs.

The dealer burned one last time and put out the {8-Clubs}. With that, the start-of-day chip leader hit the rail in sixth place.

Ryan Hagerty Eliminated in 5th Place ($31,396)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Ryan Hagerty
Ryan Hagerty

Action folded around to Ryan Hagerty in the small blind and he moved all in for 1.325 million, which Raymond Ross Jr called from the big blind.

Raymond Ross Jr: {a-Spades}{5-Hearts}
Ryan Hagerty: {q-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Hagerty was behind but held two live cards. Unfortunately for him, he saw those live cards go out the window when the {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop paired Ross.

The {k-Hearts} turn gave Hagerty a gutshot straight draw to a jack but he missed as the {7-Spades} bricked on the river.

Sam Ganzfried
Sam Ganzfried

Raymond Ross Jr moved all in from the small blind to put the screws to Sam Ganzfried, who opted to call off for approximately 1.7 million from the big blind.

Sam Ganzfried: {k-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Raymond Ross Jr: {9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

Ganfried got it in good and he maintained his lead through both the {a-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop and {10-Diamonds} river. Unfortunately for him, the {7-Diamonds} on the river drove a dagger through his heart by giving Ross a winning two pair.

Jason Deutsch Eliminated in 3rd Place ($56,685)

Level 32 : 100,000/200,000, 100,000 ante
Jason Deutsch
Jason Deutsch

Jason Deutsch limped the button, Raymond Ross Jr completed from the small blind, and Mike Cohen checked his option to bring about a {4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop.

Ross led out for 375,000, Cohen folded, and Deutsch called to see the {10-Spades} turn.

Ross checked and Deutsch bet 950,000. Ross responded by check-raising all in and Deutsch called off for around 5.4 million total.

Raymond Ross Jr: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}
Jason Deutsch: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Deautsch was ahead with top pair but Ross had a pair and flush draw. He hit the latter when the {2-Spades} spiked on the river.
