Daniel Guerrero Eliminated in 10th Place

Level 25 : 30,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

With the shortest stack of 285,000, Daniel Guerrero moved all in from the hijack and was called by David Leese on the button. The blinds folded and Guerrero was at risk.

Daniel Guerrero: {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
David Leese: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The flop gave Guerrero hope as the dealer spread {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, giving him a straight draw. However, no further help would come on the {j-Spades} turn and the {k-Clubs} river.

The final nine players have now been sent on a 40-minute dinner break before returning to play the final table.

Fadaifar Wins Biggest Pot of Tournament From Wazwaz

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Hesam Fadaifar
Hesam Fadaifar

MSPT Hall of Famer Rob Wazwaz just ran into a massive cooler at the hands of Hesam Fadaifar, which has seen Fadaifar cross the two million chip mark.

On a flop of {10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}, Fadaifar checked to Wazwaz, who bet 150,000. Fadaifar responded with a check-raise all in for 900,000.

After some pained deliberation, Wazwaz called to see the horrific cooler.

Hesam Fadaifar: {q-Spades}{9-Spades}
Rob Wazwaz:{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Fadaifar had flopped the nut straight against Wazwaz's two pair.

The dealer couldn't bail out Wazwaz as he laid out the {q-Clubs} and {5-Hearts} to complete the hand which sent the massive pot to Fadaifar.

Wazwaz was left with just 300,000, but has since bounced back to almost 1,000,000.

Rich Lanes raised to 95,000 and Patrick Barth decided to move all-in on the big blind for 145,000. Lanes called.

Patrick Barth, {7-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Rich Lanes, {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Barth's baby cards couldn't grow up big and strong for him as the board came {k-Clubs}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to send him to the rail in 11th place.

Genefredo Legaspi Eliminated in 12th Place ($6,860)

Level 23 : 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Hesam Fadaifar opened under the gun to 70,000 and Genefredo Legaspi moved all in for just 5,000 more. Adam Friedman called in the big blind.

Fadaifar and Friedman checked down the ace-high board and when the cards were revealed at the end, Fadaifar showed {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a pair of aces, which cracked Legaspi's {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}. Friedman tossed his cards into the muck as the boisterous Legaspi headed to the payout desk.
