Randy Swackhamer Eliminated in 11th Place

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

Randy Swackhamer, Kyle Gay and Rio Mansour saw a flop of {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Swackhamer shoved for 46,000, Rio Mansour called, and Gay got out of the way. Swackhamer showed top pair with the {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}, but Mansour had him dominated with the {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a set. The {A-Diamonds} sealed the deal, and the meaningless {7-Hearts} gave Mansour quads. We've now reached our 10-handed final table. Seat draw coming shortly.

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

Two eliminations just occurred at the same time. At Table 3, Deet V. shoved for 53,000 from the button with the {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and Joe O'Keefe called from the big blind with the {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. The boatd ran out {6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and Deet V. was eliminated in 13th place.

At Table 6, Brian Moss shoved with the {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} and Tom Scanlon called with the {A-Spades}{J-Spades}. The ten-high board sent Moss to the rail in 11th place.

MacKinnon: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}

The board ran out an uneventful {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and MacKinnon shipped the triple-up.

Greenly Cracks Aces

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

Adam Greenly, Jeff Katz and another player were all in before the flop Katz's {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} were in great shape to secure a huge pot against Greenly's {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and the other player's {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}, but the {Q-Clubs} arrived in the window to shift Greenly into the lead. His set held up and two players were eliminated, leaving us on the money bubble.
