Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Jason Kapoor got the last of his chips in the middle against Ken Baime preflop.

Jason Kapoor: {7-Spades}{6-Spades}
Ken Baime: {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The {j-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} runout was not what Kapoor needed and he was eliminated.

It's been an extremely emotional day for Kapoor. He learned that one of his best friends passed away unexpectedly and spent much of the day fighting back tears.

He was down to a single blind at one point with two tables to go, then he was on the verge of victory a few moments ago. Kapoor said at the start of the day that he was dedicating his play today to his friend Stephen Ray Malone III, and he put on one heck of a performance.
