: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
John Loza chopped a pot right after break, but in the second hand the Austin, Texas native was eliminated from the tournament.
Huy Nguyen opened to 125,000 from the hijack seat and Loza called all in for 75,000 from the cutoff. Bobby "Shooter" Hempkins called from the small blind and the flop fell 
. Hempkins checked, Nguyen fired 225,000 and Hempkins folded. Loza and Nguyen opened their hands.
Nguyen: 
Loza: 
Loza was very much alive with two overs, a flush draw and a back-door straight draw, but the 
and the 
were both bricks and he was eliminated in 12th place.
Nguyen is now over 4 million chips.
