Matthew Berkey Eliminated in 34th Place ($13,368)

Level 2 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Both Matthew Berkey and Sean Getzwiller got in a preflop clash with both players having the same 63,200-chip stack.

Berkey: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Getzwiller: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} flop gave Getzwiller the lead, but left Berkey with outs to a pair or a straight draw. The {8-Spades} on the turn changed little, and when the {7-Diamonds} landed on the river, Berkey was headed to the rail in 34th place as Getzwiller moves to 130,000 in chips and is now heads up against Ben Tollerene.
