Action folded to Roch Cousineau on the button and he raised to 18,000. Lester Suppes was in the big blind and three-bet the pot, leaving just 7,000 behind. Cousineau asked how much Suppes had left and then put in the small raise, prompting Suppes to call off.

Showdown
Suppes: {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {10-Spades}
Cousineau: {5-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}

The {7-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {5-Spades} flop was disaster for Suppes as it gave Cousineau a set. Neither the {Q-Hearts} turn nor {4-Spades} river would change a thing and Suppes made his way to the payout desk in 23rd place.

Meanwhile, Loren Klein preceded Suppes out the door in 24th place.

Appleman Plants Sklar

Chad Holloway

We caught the action on the {Q-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {5-Spades} flop when a short-stacked Richard Sklar got all in for 25,000 and was called by Mickey Appleman, who was also on a short stack.

Showdown
Sklar: {10-Clubs} {10-Spades} {2-Spades} {J-Spades}
Appleman: {A-Spades} {6-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}

"Wow, I need a king," Sklar said when he saw Appleman held a bigger flush draw. Unfortunately for him, it wasn't in the cards as the {8-Diamonds} appeared on the turn followed by the {6-Diamonds} on the river. With that, Appleman chipped up to 100,000 and Sklar made his way to the payout desk in 22nd place.

Chisholm Eliminated Right Before Break

[user162117]

Kami Chisholm has just been eliminated on the last hand before the players were sent on a break. We caught the action from the turn, with a {4-Spades} {10-Clubs} {k-Clubs} {7-Spades} board showing and with Jack Ward leading out for 35,000. Chisholm called and a {10-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. This time Ward checked, and Chisholm shoved for around 75,000. Ward instantly called, tabling his {a-Diamonds} {a-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} .

Chisholm held {6-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {2-Spades} , with very little to combat Ward's aces and with that, Chisholm was eliminated in 21st place.

Cohen and Saout Out; Final 18 Remain

[user162117]

Jesse Cohen and Antoine Saout have just been eliminated close to simultaneously on their respective tables, seeing us redrawing down to the final two tables. We caught the action from the flop over on Cohen's table, with Cohen getting all his chips in against Felicia Johnico on a {q-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {a-Hearts} . Here is how the hands looked.

Johnico: {a-Diamonds} {k-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}
Cohen: {a-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {3-Hearts}

The {7-Diamonds} turn changed very little, but the {10-Clubs} river was enough to give Johnico the win as Cohen was sent home in 20th place.

Just a few moments later and we noticed Antoine Saout was being sent to the rail holding {6-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} against {a-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} on a {8-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {9-Clubs} board. Saout was officially sent packing in 19th place.

With that, we are down to 18 and will have the redraw posted very soon.
