Kevin Schaffel pushed all in from under-the-gun for his last 315,000 and found one caller in Kyle Frey from the hijack to put Schaffel at risk.

Schaffel: {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Frey: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

Schaffel would need help going to the flop, however, no help came as the board ran out {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, sending Schaffel to the rail in 12th place.

Frey is up to 2,150,000.

Chaplin Folds to Kelly's Pressure

Joseph Chaplin opened to 43,000 from the cutoff position and was three-bet by JP Kelly from the button to 107,000. Chaplin made the call to see a flop, which came {6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

Both players checked and the turn brought the {5-Spades}. This time, Chaplin led out for 120,000 and Kelly called.

The {4-Diamonds} completed the board and Chaplin fired 200,000 into the middle. Kelly thought it over and announced he was all in. Chaplin conceded the pot to Kelly and mucked his hand.

Chaplin is now sitting on 840,000 while Kelly has chipped up to 1.1 million.

Mario Puccini Eliminated in 11th Place ($41,976)

Mario Puccini 11th place
Mario Puccini 11th place

It was folded over to Greg Ostrander in the small blind, who raised Mario Puccini's big blind to 52,000. Puccini made the call to see a flop, which brought the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.

Ostrander led out for 75,000 and Puccini raised to 150,000. Undeterred, Ostrander went all in and Puccini called all in for his last 400,000.

Puccini: {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for the flopped nut-straight.
Ostrander: {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for an inferior straight with a flush draw.

Puccini was in the lead, however, the {2-Diamonds} turn left Ostrander with the diamond flush. A meaningless {5-Spades} fell on the river and Puccini was sent to the rail in 11th place.
