Glenn Uchibori Eliminated in 12th Place ($1,640)

Level 21 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Scott Stewart raised to 35,000 under the gun and called when Glenn Uchibori three-bet all in for roughly 160,000.

Stewart: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Uchibori: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Uchibori was way behind and failed to get lucky as the board ran out an unhelpful {3-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}.

The feature table eliminations of Patrick Tardif and Jed Hoffman in 11th and 10th place respectively means the final nine players will now redraw to the final table.

Pokrivnak's Big Slick Bad Beat

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Andy Pokrivnak opened for 28,000 under the gun and action folded to Glenn Uchibori, who moved all in for 131,000 from the big blind. Pokrivnak snap-called and the hands were turned up.

Uchibori: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Pokrivnak: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Both players held the same hand but Uchibori was suited. That's what made the difference too as the board ran out {9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds} to give Uchibori a flush and the double.

Nelson Bows Out in 14th Place

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Eric Nelson
Eric Nelson

Action folded to a short-stacked Eric Nelson in the small blind and he moved all in for approximately 100,000, which WSOPC ring winner Ashley Sleeth called from the big blind.

Nelson: {q-}{2-}
Sleeth: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

Nelson was in need of some help, most readily a queen, but none was to be had as the board ran out {5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{j-Clubs}.
