Rupert Elder Eliminated In 18th Place ($25,769), Tyler Cornell Eliminated In 17th Place ($25,769)

The first hand after the re-draw, Rupert Elder pushed all in for his last 50,000 and got a call from Jesse Cohen

Elder had {j-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Cohen had {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

The board ran out {2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Elder left in 18th place.

One hand later on another table, Tyler Cornell raised it up to 26,000 preflop and our chip leader Anthony Ruberto re-raised it up to 77,000 from the big blind. Cornell re-raised to 160,000 and Ruberto moved all in, Cornell called.

It was a bit of a cooler for Cornell as his {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} were dominated by the {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} of Ruberto. The board ran out {k-Spades}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and Ruberto is now up to around 2,100,000 and has a dominating chip lead.
