Down to the Last 48 Players
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
It had been 49 players for a while and that changed when Menesh Keshav ran with A♠10♠ into the A♦J♦ of Franco Da Matta to leave empty-handed.
At the same time, Dirk Steenkamp continued his comeback story. Justin Cohen check-called for 50,000 into 210,000 on the 9♣4♥4♠7♦ turn when Steenkamp bet on the button and then did so again for 75,000 on the 2♠ river. Steenkamp flipped over his 9♥9♠ for the flopped full house.
