Dylan Thomassie Eliminated in 17th Place ($26,338)

From under the gun, Dylan Thomassie open-shoved for his last 127,000 before the flop. The action folded around to Foster Hays who reraised to 300,000 before Jeffrey Lavelle moved all-in from the small blind. Hays quickly got out of the way and the cards were revealed:

Lavelle: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}
Thomassie: {J-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The flop of {Q-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{6-Spades} put Lavelle further in front, but gave Thomassie a chance with the gut-shot straight draw. No dice - the turn and river ran out {4-Diamonds}, {5-Clubs} and Thomassie hit the rail in 17th place ($26,338).
