The turn was the {4-Diamonds} ,giving Velasquez the flush. Tello needed the board to pair to secure the elimination, but the river bricked off with the {a-Hearts} and Velasquez chipped up.

Aurel Bogdan Eliminated by Diego Lizana

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Aurel Bogdan just lost a flip with pocket jacks against Daniel Vejar's king-queen and was knocked down to just 50,000 in chips. He lost the hand and possibly his headphones after smashing them on the ground once the board ran out in Vejar's favor.

Shortly after, Bogdan got his remaining stack in the middle with {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} in the big blind after calling a shove from Diego Lizana in the small blind with {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}. The board ran out {6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and he hit the rail.

Francisco Salazar Runs Queens Into Kings

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Francisco Salazar limped in from the small blind, and Amos Ben raised to 46,000. Salazar re-raised to 200,000, and Ben moved all in. Salazar snap-called for his remaining 480,000.

It was a cooler, and chip leader Ben was on the right side of it holding {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. Salazar tabled {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and stood up from his seat.

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Ben took an even bigger lead with a set of kings. The turn was the {10-Spades} and Salazar picked up a straight draw for some hope of surviving. The river was the {5-Diamonds} and Salazar was eliminated.

Ben is now up over two million in chips.
