Darin Utley Eliminated in 18th Place ($8,896)

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Darin Utley
Darin Utley

Darin Utley opened to 125,000 in early position and was flat-called by Jalen Heald one seat over. Action folded around to the big blind, where Jim Erickson three-bet to a covering amount of 2 million. Utley called all in for 800,000 and Heald immediately called behind for 960,000 to put more than 2.5 million up for grabs between the three players.

Darin Utley: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Jalen Heald: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Jim Erickson: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Heald's aces were way out in front and pulled even further ahead on the flop {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. The turn {3-Diamonds} and river {k-Clubs} completed the runout and both pots were sent his way, eliminating Utley in 18th place in the process.

Final Two Tables Reached

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Final Two Tables
Final Two Tables

Peyton Smith opened in the hijack and then called a re-shove from Jared Ditmarson in the big blind for his remaining 330,000.

Jared Ditmarson: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Peyton Smith: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

A king came on the flop to give Ditmarson the best hand on an eventual runout of {3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, fading backdoor flush outs to score the double.

Moments later, both Day 1a chip leader Peter Schmall and Jason Alonzo were eliminated from the tournament to bring the field down to 18 and bring the tournament down to the final two tables.

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Hunter Barnett
Hunter Barnett

Larry Wagner was under the gun and raised to 150,000. Action folded around to Hunter Barnett in the big blind, who re-jammed for 350,000 and was called.

Hunter Barnett: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Larry Wagner: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The Day 1b chip leader's tournament came to an end, finding himself unable to win the coin flip as the dealer brought a runout of {3-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{a-Spades} to give Wagner aces up and knock Barnett out of the tournament.

Moments prior, Matt Schurter was also eliminated, and the pair of bust outs brings the field down to 20.

Ramos Cooked

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jordan Ramos
Jordan Ramos

The seat previously occupied by Jason Ramos was seen vacated and tablemate Jason Gross confirmed the action, stating that Rahul Chaudhari opened and Ramos called him for the two to see a flop of {10-}{9-}{x-}. Chaudhary jammed to put Ramos to a decision for his remaining stack and Ramos called.

Jason Ramos: {q-}{j-}
Rahul Chaudhari: {k-}{k-}

Ramos only had six outs given the circumstances and none came on the final two cards, spelling his elimination in 23rd.

Vick Gets Knocked Out

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Gary L. Vick
Gary L. Vick

Gary L. Vick opened to 100,000 in early position, roughly one-third of his stack, and then called off the rest after Timothy Gundrum re-jammed with a covering stack from middle position.

Gary L. Vick: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Timothy Gundrum: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

No jack came on the runout {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts}, with Vick also picking up gutshot outs on the flop that failed to fill up. Shortly thereafter, both Marquez Davis and Brad Sailor were also knocked out, bringing the field down to 23.

Brock Busts in Twenty-Seventh

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Chad Brock
Chad Brock

Chad Brock was in early position and open-jammed for 255,000. Action folded around to Peyton Smith in the big blind, who thought for a bit and then called.

Chad Brock: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
Peyton Smith: {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}

Both players connected with the flop {q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{j-Spades}, ultimately reducing Smith's outs by one. Unfortunately for Brock, it didn't matter as {6-Spades} fell on the turn to give Smith trips. The river {9-Hearts} was of no avail and Brock was sent packing in 27th place.
