Ehsan Amiri Eliminated in 24th Place ($44,700)

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Ehsan Amiri
Ehsan Amiri

One more hand was to be finished on the outer tables and that one brought a battle of the blinds between Mitchell Halverson and Ehsan Amiri. The former check-called a bet by Amiri on the {k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} turn and checked again the {2-Clubs} on the river.

Amiri bet 125,000 with around 350,000 behind and Halverson used one time bank before check-raising, splashing in nine T-100,000 chips. Amiri was somewhat stunned for a few seconds and eventually called it off.

Halverson revealed the {j-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for flopped middle pair that went runner runner to a flush, which beat the {k-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} for two pair by Amiri. The Aussie bowed out prior to the three table redraw and locked up a pay jump for the final 23 contenders.

Iadisernia Loses a Small Bunch; Colillas Slips Once More

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

In a battle of the blinds to the {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} river, Giuseppe Iadisernia checked and quickly called a bet worth 125,000 by Mauricio Ferreira Pais for around two thirds of the pot. He was shown the {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the nuts and Iadisernia mucked.

Shortly after on the same outer table, Ramon Colillas led the {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop for 60,000 and folded when Alexandre Raymond jammed from the next seat.
