Chris Wallace Eliminated in 18th Place ($21,759)

Shawn Quinn started the action by moving all in from under the gun and Chris Wallace re-shipped behind him. Action passed to Eric Roussakis in the small blind and he called. Quinn was the shortest stack and Roussakis had Wallace covered.

Quin: {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}
Wallace: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}
Roussakis: {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

The board ran {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {5-Spades} and the five on the river saved Quinn's tournament life and earned him a triple up. Wallace was eliminated and Roussakis lost a good portion of his stack.

Down to Two Tables

Level 28 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

The clock has been paused so the field can consolidate down to two tables. Their seat draws will be posted shortly.

Roussakis Doubles Through Lewis

Eric Roussakis and Luther Lewis went to a flop of {6-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {2-Spades}. Roussakis checked, Lewis bet 150,000 and Roussakis check-raised to 350,000. Lewis took only a moment to call and the turn came {9-Hearts}. Roussakis quietly announced all in and kept his stare straight down on the table.

Lewis asked for a count and for the dealer to spread the pot. The bet was 1.3 million and Lewis counted out the chips to call and stood think for a bit longer. After some careful deliberation Lewis pushed in the call and Roussakis flipped over {5-Hearts} {3-Hearts} for a flopped straight. Lewis turned over pocket tens and was drawing dead. A {J-Spades} came on the river.

Everett Carlton Eliminated in 19th Place ($18,141)

Action folded to Jonathan Job on the button and he raised to 90,000. The small blind got out of the way, but Everett Carlton decided to ship his stack of approximately 300,000 in the middle. Job didn't seemed enthused, but he made the call nonetheless.

Showdown
Job: {K-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Carlton: {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

While Carlton was ahead preflop, the {6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{J-Clubs} flop changed all that. Job had paired his five and left Carlton looking for an ace. The {6-Diamonds} turn was a blank, and so was the {5-Diamonds} river. Job made a full house to send Carlton out the door in 19th place.

With that, the remaining 18 players are redrawing and combining tables.

Ilich Gets Chow-ed

With about 750,000 in the pot and a board reading {7-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, Bob Chow fired out 350,000 from the small blind into Drazen Ilich, who was in the big. The latter thought for a couple of minutes, intensely staring down his opponent, before splashing in a call.

Chow confidently rolled over {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a straight, which prompted Ilich to shake his head and muck his cards.

Dominic Fosco Eliminated in 20th Place ($18,141)

Action folded to Alan Murphy on the button and he put in a raise, which Dominic Fosco three-bet all in. Murphy made the call and discovered he was ahead.

Showdown
Murphy: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Fosco: {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Fosco managed to hit a ten on the {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, but he was still in need of some help. The {K-Clubs} turn was not what he was looking for, while the {J-Diamonds} improved Murphy to a set. Fosco became the first Day 3 casualty, finishing in 20th place for $18,141.
