Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Action folded around to Alex Wheeler who raised all in for 102,000 on the button and Tyler Kolness looked him up from the big blind.

Alex Wheeler: {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Tyler Kolness: {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Wheeler was ahead until the {5-Spades}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop hit the felt giving Kolness top two-pair.

The {9-Hearts} turn was no help to Wheeler as it left him drawing dead to the {9-Spades} river and he was eliminated in 24th place for $3,962.

Action on the table folded around to Steven Madsen who raised all in for roughly 155,000 and Taylor Howard isolated from the small blind.

Steven Madsen: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Taylor Howard: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Madsen was behind holding two overs and the {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{a-Hearts} flop gave him more outs with the nut flush draw.

Unfortunately for him, both the {9-Diamonds} turn and {10-Spades} river were bricks, ending his tournament in 26th place for $3,447.
