Derrick Kuenzel - 10th Place

On the fourth hand of the day, action passed to Derrick Kuenzel in late position. He open-shoved all in for about 475,000. Chip leader Chris Johnson was in the big blind with {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and re-shoved to clear out the field. Kuenzel opened {7-Clubs}{7-Spades} and the race was on. Johnson took the lead on the flop, {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. He had diamonds covered, and a good thing as the turn came {8-Diamonds} and river fell {6-Diamonds}. Each player made a diamond flush, but Johnson's king-high flush was the winner.

Kuenzel's 10th-place finish earned him $11,492, and gives everyone else at the final table a little more elbow room.
