Elvis Palmeri Eliminated in 4th Place ($1,880)

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
Elvis Palmeri
Elvis Palmeri

Geoff Saxton potted, Evan Shaughnessy repotted all in, and Elvis Palmeri called all in for his last 60,000.

Saxton folded and it was Shaughnessy's {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} against Palmeri's {a-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. Shaughnessy made a flush on the {5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{10-Hearts} board to snuff out Palmeri's tournament life.

Palmeri was caught in a trap, couldn't walk out and has now left the building.

O'Hallaran held the {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}, but Saxton flushed out on the {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{k-Hearts}{2-Spades}{9-Spades} board to end his run in fifth.

Saxton Knocks Off Shaughnessy

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Geoff Saxton
Geoff Saxton

Geoff Saxton and Evan Shaughnessy got 120,000 in the pot before a {3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop, then the rest of Saxton's 220,000 in chips went in after a series of raises.

Saxton had the {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades} and Shaughnessy called with the {6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{q-Hearts}. Saxton hit the miracle {4-} turn to complete his gutshot straight and held through a brick on the river to double up huge and snatch the lead.

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante

[Removed:300] got it in with Ray LaRouech at risk holding the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} over LaRouche's {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{q-Spades}.

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{7-Spades}{a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades} making LaRouche two pair. [Removed:301] had 15,000 left, and that disappeared a few hands later when he ran into Elvis Palmeri and two pair in the big blind.
