Max Reele Eliminated in 26th Place ($9,661)

Max Reele
Max Reele
Chip leader at the start of the day, Max Reele has just lost the last of his chips to new top-dog Ben Fineman, finishing the day in 26th place. Action started off with a 9,000 raise from Adam Geyer who made it 9,000 to go from the cutoff. Max made the call from the button and the action then fell to Fineman in the small blind who kicked it up to 25,000. Both the big blind and Geyer stepped out of the way and when the action returned to Reele, he insta-shoved all in for about 80,000. Fineman snap-called, tabling {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and was slightly ahead of Reele's {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. A board of {5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} fell in favor of Fineman who raked in the pot, sending Reele to the rail in 26th place.

Max will take home $9,661 in prize money for his efforts. Meanwhile, Fineman assumed the top spot on the leaderboard with just over 360,000 in chips.
