Joseph Townsend Eliminated in 12th place (£14,950)
Level 24
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Joe Townsend is the 12th place finisher after busting from the main event only a few moments ago.
Townsend opened to 51,000 from the cutoff and called when Chi Zhang three-bet to 151,000 from the small blind. A 
flop was continued on by Zhang who bet 130,000. Townsend responded with an all-in bet of 700,000 and Zhang called without much pause for thought.

Townsend: 
Zhang's top pair was ahead, but he needed to fade the flush draw to win the hand. The 
turn gave Townsend a few more outs to a straight, but they failed to arrive on the 
river, which sent Townsend to the rail.
