Bowers Bows Out
Level 23
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
We're not 100% sure, but it appeared Tripp Kirk raised on the button and then called when Morgan Bowers shoved all in from the small blind. Whatever the case, Bowers was at risk and in trouble as her 
was dominated by the of Kirk.
We'd like to say there was a reprieve for one of the last three women in the field, but that's not how it happened as the board ran out a draw 
. With that, Bowers bowed out in 34th place for $4,618.

Level 23
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

It happend when Yen opened from the hijack and then called when Montero moved all in from the big blind for roughly 190,000. Montero flipped over the 
and didn't seem excited when he saw Yen's 
.
"He's got two overs," Montero told Claudia Crawford. Indeed he did and one of them came on the flop. Yen took a commanding lead and Monteri was looking for a seven to stay alive. The 
turn wasn't what he needed and neither was the 
river. Montero was eliminated in 35th place.
