Daniel Sears Eliminated in 27th Place; Nick Confessore Eliminated in 26th Place ($1,896)
Level 20
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
After a couple of preflop raises, three players got all of their chips in the middle. Daniel Sears was the shortest stack at risk for around 200,000 and Nick Confessore was all in for just over 700,000. Carl Masters was the big stack and had both players covered.
Daniel Sears: A♥K♥
Nick Confessore: J♠J♦
Carl Masters: A♣A♦
The flop came A♠9♣2♥ and Masters improved to a set of aces to leave both of his opponents drawing slim. The J♥ on the turn was cruel to Confessore, although it did give him some hope. The river was the 5♠ and both of the shorter stacks were eliminated.
