Masaki Eliminated in 10th Place ($2,214)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Jun Obara doubled PINZMAN when his jam with 8♦5♣ was called by A♣4♣ and the ace remained ahead on a board of 9♥6♦2♣K♠10♠.
Soon after that, the former stage table chip leader Masaki jammed out of the small blind into the big blind of Jiro3 and both had near even stack sizes.
Masaki: A♦6♦ 
Jiro3: 7♠7♦
The suited ace gained no equity on a board of 10♣5♣4♠10♥K♥ and both stacks were counted. Jiro3's 3,475,000 covered and that reduced the field to the final nine players, which are now on a break prior to the final table start.
