Brock Croft
Brock Croft

Brock Croft open-jammed in the hijack for 280,000 and was called by Jay Gray in the big blind.

Croft: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Gray: {10-Spades}{8-Spades}

Croft wound up landing on the wrong end of the coin flip as the runout {a-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} gave Gray a pair of tens, eliminating him in 14th place as a result.

Richard Bolden Eliminated in 15th Place ($3,161)

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Richard Bolden
Richard Bolden

Richard Bolden went all in for 410,000 under the gun and James Hart announced he was all in from the cutoff, as well. David Lee was in the big blind and also said he was all in, bringing about the three-way all-in preflop scenario.

Bolden: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Lee: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Hart: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Lee's queens were ahead and remained there through the flop {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and turn {4-Clubs}. He then looked away from the board as the dealer brought the river {7-Spades}, only to look back and see it had landed cleanly to score him both pots and eliminate Bolden.

Lee's stack was totaled to be 1.41 million, with Hart covering by just 260,000 for Lee to earn more than the full double when all was said and done.

Jon Swift Eliminated in 16th Place ($2,408)

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jon Swift
Jon Swift

Jon Swift opened to 150,000 on the button, leaving himself a handful of chips behind, and Teresa Lammie-Anders announced she was all in from the small blind. Swift took a glance towards the other table in play and saw nothing notable going on, so he wasted no further time committing the rest of his chips.

Swift: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Lammie-Anders: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

An ace in the window of {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{5-Hearts} looked bleak, but Swift was still alive after pairing his king. He picked up Broadway outs on {10-Hearts}, but also lost heart outs as Lammie-Anders turned the nut flush draw. The river {4-Spades} changed nothing as it completed the runout, and Swift made his way to the payout desk as the 16th-place finisher.

Timothy Sams Eliminated in 17th Place ($2,408)

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Timothy Sams
Timothy Sams

Jay Gray opened the action with a raise to 90,000 in the hijack and Timothy Sams re-jammed on the button for 415,000. Kenneth Douglas was next to act in the small blind and also re-jammed, with nobody else committing a further chip.

Sams: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Douglas: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Gray said he folded ace-ten suited, meaning Sams was immediately drawing to just two outs. That changed on {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}, as Sams picked up a Royal Flush draw, but it was left high and dry as {k-Spades}{4-Spades} completed the runout to earn Douglas the pot and send Sams out in 17th place.

Cody Stanford

Matthew Kassela opened to 60,000 in early position and Brock McCoy called one seat over. Cody Stanford three-bet to 245,000 in the cutoff and Kassela folded, with McCoy calling behind.

Stanford: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
McCoy: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

A king came on the flop, and it was punctuated with an ace on the river to give McCoy top two pair and eliminate Stanford in 18th place.

Final Two Tables Reached

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Mark Kehrees
Mark Kehrees

All of the chips got into the middle preflop between David Lee in middle position and Mark Kehrees, who was in the cutoff.

Kehrees: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Lee: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

Kehrees found himself in the unavoidable cooler situation and got no help on the runout {q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} to bring his elimination.

On an adjacent table, Julie Cornelius got the rest of her chips into the middle in the big blind with {6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} against Kyle Cartwright's {k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} on the button.

The board ran out {8-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Spades}{10-Hearts}, missing all of her draws to bring about her elimination in 19th place.

Two tables now remain in play.

Greer Shoves Into Top Set

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Jesse Greer
Jesse Greer

Jesse Greer opened in early position and received a call from Max Le in the hijack.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Greer continuation-bet 70,000. Le called and the turn came {3-Diamonds}. Greer announced he was all in and Le immediately announced a call.

Greer: {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Le: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Greer was drawing dead against Le's top set, picking up a useless {7-Clubs} as a consolation prize on the river. His stack was totaled to be 490,000 with Le's north of 500K, and he was eliminated from the tournament as a result.

Moments later, another payout call was heard from Table 24 as Alec Wilson was also eliminated by Le to bring the field down to 22. Then, Hao Zhu was seen making his way to the payouts, meaning 21 players now remain.

"You Sat Down Too Soon!"

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Brian Durr
Brian Durr

All of the chips got into the middle on a flop of {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} with Brian Durr at risk for 115,000 plus what was already in the pot. Durr was in middle position and was up against Edward Fisher, who was under the gun.

Durr: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Fisher: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Durr stood up to sweat his 11 outs, one of which came on the turn {a-Hearts}. He then began to sit down, but the river {q-Hearts} fell behind to give Fisher a full house and eliminate Durr.

"You sat down too soon!" said tablemate Teresa Lammie-Anders.

Bubble Bursts as Miskelly and Dunn Fall

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Kaleb Dunn
Kaleb Dunn

Hand #1: The floor made an announcement for dealers to hold up after finishing the hand they were playing, as Walker Miskelly had been eliminated from Table 23. Tablemate David Lee confirmed the action, saying Miskelly had open-jammed and received a call from Lee before Matthew Kassella re-jammed for a well-above-average stack. Lee took no time to think about his decision, taking a shot at the double knockout.

Miskelly: {j-}{10-}
Kassela: {a-}{k-}
Lee: {a-}{k-}

"We chopped Walker's stack," said Lee.

Hand #2: While Miskelly was being eliminated, Kaleb Dunn and Jon Swift were involved in a pot that had around 100,000 in the middle on a completed board of {7-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{q-Clubs}.

Dunn was in the cutoff and bet 33,000 after Swift checked to him in early position, only to see Swift check-shove for his remaining stack of around 185,000. After a while in the tank, Dunn found a call.

Dunn: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Swift: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Dunn had hit top pair, top kicker on the river after failing to complete his flush draw. Unfortunately for him, Swift turned a set of tens that proved best and eliminated Dunn in 64th place moments later to burst the bubble and take the tournament into the money.

Rebeka Crosby open-jammed for 72,000 in early position and received a call from Kyle Cartwright in the hijack, with everybody else folding behind.

Crosby: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Cartwright: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Crosby asked to flip well, but was disappointed by an ace sandwiched between an eight and a deuce on the flop of a runout {8-Spades}{a-Clubs}{2-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} to bring about her elimination from the tournament. Meanwhile, Cartwright has continued to add to his stack over the last few levels and now has
