Nick Barksdale Eliminated in 7th Place ($10,585); Walt Lustgraaf Eliminated in 6th Place ($12,634)
Level 26
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Nick Barksdale moved all-in for 500,000 from middle position before Nick Hall rejammed next to act. Walt Lustgraaf then called off his 950,000 stack from the big blind.
Nick Barksdale: 9♠9♣ 
Walt Lustgraaf: K♥K♦
Nick Hall: A♥K♣
It was a pot with massive implications with Lustgraaf primed to drag a huge one on the 10♥7♦5♥ flop. However, the A♣ peeled off on the turn to give Hall the lead and the 8♥ river sealed the double elimination.
