Koon Eliminated by Mizzi
Level 16
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Sorel Mizzi opened the action with a raise to 60,000 from under the gun. Jason Koon moved all in for 181,000 from two seats over and action folded all of the way back to the original opener. Mizzi instantly called and rolled over 
. Koon tabled 
and was in dire need of improvement to stay alive.
The flop came down 
and Mizzi's rockets remained in the lead. The 
paired the board on fourth street, but it was the ever-elusive third ten that Koon was looking for to stay alive. Unfortunately for Koon, the 
completed the board and he was eliminated from play. Mizzi increased his chip lead to about 2.8 million.

Shakerchi Falls to Holz
Level 15
: 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Fedor Holz raised to 50,000 from early position and it folded around to Talal Shakerchi on the button. He three-bet all in for what looked to be 231,000 and the blinds got out of the way. Holz called and the hands were turned up.
Holz: 
Shakerchi:
A 
run out spelled disaster for Shakerchi, as he was unable to improve to best Holz's ace-queen high. Shakerchi made his way to the rail while Holz boosted his stack to about 1.25 million.
