James Boyle Eliminated in 9th Place ($59,705)

Andy "Blackjack" Philachack is now holding over a third of the chips in play after sending James Boyle to the rail in ninth place.

Boyle open-shoved for his last 650,000 before the flop and Philachack called before the others let them have at it; Boyle showed {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} but found himself flipping for his tournament life against Philachack's {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.

The flop of {7-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} kept Philachack ahead, but the repeat {Q-Diamonds} on the turn improved Philachack to two pair. Needing any ace, jack or ten, the {4-Hearts} blanked out on the river.
