Thomas Doubles; Haynes Falls
Level 25
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Benjamin Thomas went all in for 300,000 exactly under the gun and action folded around to John Lytle, who called on the button to result in a heads-up showdown.
Benjamin Thomas: 
John Lytle: 
Thomas needed to hit the board to stay alive and did just that on the flop 
, finding a pair of jacks and a nut flush draw to go with it. The turn 
and river 
were smooth sailings and Thomas earned the double as a result.
Moments earlier, Desmond Haynes was seen making his way to the payout desk as a pot was shipped to Martin Zamani, who now has a stack of 3.725 million. Twenty-five remain, and just one more elimination is needed for the three-table redraw.
