Cody Wunder Eliminated in 11th Place ($10,783)

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Cody Wunder
Cody Wunder

Cody Wunder open-jammed in the hijack and Stephen Torre dropped a chip onto the felt on the button, prompting folds behind.

Cody Wunder: {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Stephen Torre: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The flop {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and turn {2-Hearts} gave Wunder a chance at another unlikely chop in addition to his two live cards, but the river {q-Diamonds} helped him not and finished in 11th place as a result.

With 10 players remaining, the tournament is on the final table bubble with both remaining tables playing five handed.

A Wunder-ful Chop

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Timothy Gundrum raised to 175,000 in the cutoff and Cody Wunder re-jammed for under half a million in the small blind. Gundrum called.

Cody Wunder: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Timothy Gundrum: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Wunder was in trouble but saw the flop {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{k-Clubs} increase his number of direct outs from three to four. The turn {q-Clubs} took those Broadway outs away, leaving him in need of an ace or queen to chop the pot. Luckily for him, {q-Spades} brought quads on board and kept him alive to see another hand.

Larry Wagner Eliminated in 12th Place ($12,581)

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Larry Wagner
Larry Wagner

Todd Bartlett open-limped in the cutoff and saw Larry Wagner limp in behind him on the button. Both blinds came along as well to bring about a four-way postflop pot.

The flop came {4-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and action checked to Bartlett, who bet 175,000 and saw Wagner come over the top for his remaining 540,000. The blinds got out of the way and then Bartlett thought for a bit before announcing a call.

Larry Wagner: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}
Todd Bartlett: {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Wagner had flopped top two pair and was ahead of Bartlett's top pair. The turn {k-Hearts} brought 11 more outs to the Bartlett's tally, but one of his original three in the {q-Spades} fell on the river to give him a higher two pair and eliminate Wagner in 12th place.

Jeremy Calverley Eliminated in 13th Place ($10,783)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Jeremy Calverley
Jeremy Calverley

Mike Estes was under the gun and open-jammed for 460,000. Jeremy Calverley re-jammed for 900,000 on the button and Peyton Smith immediately called both shoves from the small blind thereafter.

Mike Estes: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Jeremy Calverley: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Peyton Smith: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Calverley found himself in an absolute cooler of a situation and was unable to find Broadway on a runout of {4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs} to bring his elimination as Estes tripled and Smith took the side pot, roughly breaking even on the hand in the process.

Osman Merdanovic was down to his last crumbs and got them in preflop in middle position and saw Wesley Cannon isolate everybody else out of the pot from the hijack.

Osman Merdanovic: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Wesley Cannon: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The board {8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} brought chop outs on the turn but nothing more, spelling Merdanovic's elimination in 14th place.

Wunder Doubles Twice

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Cody Wunder has just doubled twice in short succession, getting a short stack in with {a-}{9-} and holding against {k-}{7-} and then following it up with an all-in preflop situation where his {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} was up against Larry Wagner's {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}.

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}, giving Wunder a full house on the river to bring about a fist pump and a pot of nearly 1.5 million. He now finds himself with new life after being under 10 big blinds not long ago.

Rahul Chaudhari Eliminated in 15th Place ($10,783)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Rahul Chaudhari
Rahul Chaudhari

Timothy Gundrum limped in under the gun and action folded to Rahul Chaudhari, who completed his small blind. Stephen Torre was in the big blind and shoved all in for a covering amount, forcing a quick fold from Wagner.

Chaudhari then went deep into the tank, eventually having a clock called on him before calling to put his tournament life on the line.

Rahul Chaudhari: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Stephen Torre: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The flop {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} gave Chaudhari a dozen outs but he was unable to complete as running {a-Spades}{4-Clubs} improved Torre unnecessarily to a pair of aces and eliminated Chaudhari in 14th place.

Matt Morfit Eliminated in 16th Place ($8,896)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Matt Morfit

Jalen Heald opened in the hijack and Matt Morfit committed his last 160,000 from the small blind. Heald called off the few remaining chips.

Matt Morfit: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Jalen Heald: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Morfit was dominated and found himself drawing dead on the turn of a runout {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} to finish in 16th place.

A few hands prior, Heald was caught bluffing for stacks against Peyton Smith to double him up to more than 3 million and give him the chip lead in the tournament with 15 now remaining.

Ben O'Brien Eliminated in 17th Place ($8,896)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Ben O'Brien
Ben O'Brien

A short-stacked Ben O'Brien jammed under the gun for his last 155,000 and action folded around to the big blind, where Todd Bartlett called.

Ben O'Brien: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}
Todd Bartlett: {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}

An eight on the flop {3-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} put Bartlett out in front. O'Brien picked up two more outs on the turn {5-Hearts} but the river {9-Hearts} was of no help to him and he found the payout desk in 17th place as a result.
