Final Two Tables Reached
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
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: 
Peyton Smith: 
A king came on the flop to give Ditmarson the best hand on an eventual runout of 
, 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.
