Dan Harmetz Eliminated In 24th Place ($17,276)

After Joachim Berg-Jensen raised to 20,000 Andrey Zaichenko moved all in from the small blind (he had the table covered) and Harmetz called from the big blind. Berg-Jensen got out of the way and Zaichenko's {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} was pitted against Harmetz's pocket eights.

Harmetz kept the lead after the {9-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {3-Spades} flop and the {9-Diamonds} on the turn but Zaichenko spiked the {J-Hearts} on the river and eliminated Harmetz. Zaichenko is now up around 1 million in chips.
