Young and Leathem Eliminated

Level 14 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Justin Young shoved all in for 115,000 from the small blind and Seth Davies made the quick call from the big blind. Young tabled {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and held two live cards against Davies' {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. The board ran out {k-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}{a-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Davies made a pair of aces to send Young home in 10th place.

At the other table, Andy Leathem pushed all in for 170,000 and Keith Tilston called in position. Leathem tabled {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} but ran into the {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} of Tilston. The flop brought an {a-Diamonds} but was followed by the {k-Hearts} and {8-Clubs}. Leathem was left drawing slim but was given hope on the {q-Diamonds} turn card. However, the {7-Diamonds} on the river secured his fate as he became the ninth-place finisher.

With just eight players remaining, the two tables are now hand-for-hand on the money bubble. With one more elimination, everyone will gather on one table and be guaranteed at least $55,000.
