Mark Roberts Eliminated in 10th Place ($743)

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Mark Roberts moved all in for his last 77,000 with the {A-Spades}{10-Clubs} and once again it was Chris Damick putting a player at risk with the call. Roberts was ahead of Damick's {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs}, but Damick hit the {K-Diamonds} in the door and held on to eliminate Roberts in 10th place.

Level: 18

Blinds: 4,000/8,000

Ante: 1,000

Tom Smolinski Eliminated in 11th Place ($743)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

We missed the hand, but Tom Smolinksi was sent packing in 11th place to set up the 10-handed final table. We'll have a seat draw for you shortly.

Travell Thomas Eliminated in 12th Place ($743)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

They're going down quickly now. On a flop of {7-}{7-}{3-} Travell Thomas — while on the phone — called a check-shove by Chris Damick with {10-}{10-} but was way behind Damick's {J-}{7-}. Once again, Damick's hand held up and he extended his chip lead.

Todd Saffron Eiminated in 13th Place ($616)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Todd Saffron moved all in for 75,000 and Chris Damick called. Saffron was flipping with the {A-Clubs}{10-Spades} against Damick's {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} but failed to improve on the {K-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} runout.

Jimmy Thomson Eliminated in 15th Place ($616)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Chris Damick raised to 12,000 from middle position and Jimmy Thomson called from the big blind. On the {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop, Thomson checked, Damick bet 15,000 and Thomson moved all in. Snap call.

"S***!" said Thomson as he showed the {J-Spades}{4-Hearts} for a stone bluff. Damick showed the {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} for an overpair and it held up to send Thomson out in 15th place.

Schrader Doubles Through Rivera

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Action folded to Dave Schrader in the small blind and he raised to 20,000. Alex Rivera fired back with a reraise to 65,000 from the big, and Schrader paused before announcing all in. Rivera snap-called.

Schrader: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}
Rivera: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

Tough spot for Rivera, and he was unable to improve on the {9-Spades}{2-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{A-Hearts} board.

Level: 17

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Ante: 500

With the eliminations of Araj Ham Imani and another player the final 15 players are in the money and guaranteed at least $616.
