Andre Ali Eliminated in 19th Place ($6,200); Zach Smyth Eliminated in 20th ($5,300)
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
A three-way all-in broke out when Zach Smyth shoved for 610,000 from early position. Andre Ali also went all-in for 805,000 from middle position before Andrew Nguyen called both his opponents to put them both at risk.
Zach Smyth: J♠J♣
Andre Ali: A♠Q♠
Andrew Nguyen: A♥A♣
Nguyen had both covered and beat going into the runout, but the flop introduced some drama as it fanned out 2♥9♠8♠ to give Ali a flush draw.
The Q♦ turn increased Ali's outs, but the 4♦ river sealed the deal in favor of Nguyen, who scored a double knockout to take down the pot.
Ali earned $6,200 for his 19th-place finish, and Smyth won $5,300 for his 20th-place finish.
