Sam Greenwood Eliminated in 15th Place ($58,000)
![[user66118]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
John Dibella started the action with a raise to 90,000 from the hijack seat, and Sam Greenwood reraised all in for about 675,000 two seats over. Two more seats over from him, Faraz Jaka woke up with 
in the big blind, and he reraised all in, getting heads up with a power hand. Greenwood could only show 
, and his tournament life was in jeopardy.
Jaka's kings were never in trouble as the board ran 
, and Greenwood is no more. He's been bounced out in 15th place, and Jaka has rebounded his chip stack back up to 2.8 million and back in contention for the overall lead.

First in from the cutoff, David Granados stuck his last ~540,000 chips into the pot, and Anthony Gregg isolated him with a reraise from the small blind. When the cards were turned up, Granados saw that he was flipping for his tournament life.
Showdown
Granados: 
Gregg:

board, and he's been relieved of his remaining stack. He'll trade the chips for a $58,000 check, and his Main Event is done in 16th place.

Trey on the River
Faraz Jaka opened the pot to 85,000, and David Granados called from the big blind to see a heads-up flop.
It came 
, and Granados check-called a bet of 115,000. Jaka bet another 220,000 on the 
turn, and Granados called again to see the 
on the river. Now it went check-check, and Granados showed his 
first. No good. Jaka's 
had that out-kicked, and he'll drag in a pretty nice pot all things considered.

Visser in Control
From the button, Lee Goldman raised to 85,000, and Daniel Shiff flatted in the small blind. In the big, though, Ruben Visser squeezed in another raise to 245,000 total, and that drew two folds and a push of the chips in his direction.

Byron Kaverman Eliminated in 18th Place ($52,000)
Byron Kaverman raised to 80,000 from the hijack seat, and Martin Jacobson made it 165,000 from the cutoff. Kaverman decided a shove was in order, and he put his last ~900,000 chips across the line. Jacobson couldn't have called any faster, and that was likely not good news for Kaverman's 
. Indeed, the Swede tabled 
, and he was five cards from the knockout.
The first four cards off were 
, and Kaverman had six outs to try and make the winning set or straight. The river was a board pair, though, and the was the last card of his day. Kaverman is out in 18th place.

Here Come the Dutchman!
More Ruben Visser updates, and news that's making our Dutch colleague rather happy.
From the button, Visser opened the last pot to 80,000, and Kyle Julius three-bet to 175,000. Visser called the reraise, and he called a bet of 120,000 after the 
flop. The turn went check-check, and the was the last card off the deck. Julius took another shot with 225,000, but Visser called him down.
"You got it," Julius conceded.
"Show," Visser instructed. Julius tabled his 
, and Visser's was never the worst hand. He's moved up even further now, and his 3.1-million-chip stack appears to be the biggest in the room right now.
