Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
We are just a couple of eliminations from a final table. Two more levels and we will be on a dinner break.
Felicia Johnico Eliminated in 11th Place ($20,520)
Felicia Johnico has just been eliminated in 11th place, which brings us to our "unofficial" final table of 10. The last hand of Johnico's night saw her all in preflop with her extreme short stack, while Roch Cousineau and Viacheslav Zhukov continued playing the hand.
Cousineau and Zhokov both checked the 
flop and then Cousineau bet 76,000 on the 
turn. This amount saw Zhokov fold and promtped Cousineau and Johnico to reveal their hands.
Cousineau: 
Johnico: 
Cousineau had the full house and with an 
on the river changing nothing, Johnico was eliminated.

McNally Left Very Short
Daniel Mcnally started the "unofficial" final table as the short stack and is now even shorter after rumbling in a small pot with Yuval Bronshtein. The hand started with Bronshtein opening to 42,000 from under the gun. Mcnally thought hard before making a decision out of the small blind, eventually sliding out the call and leaving himself with 53,000 behind.
On the 
flop, Mcnally checked and Yuval bet pot. Mcnally hesitated a few time before letting his hand go and sending the pot to Bronshtein.

Daniel McNally Eliminated in 10th Place ($20,520)
Daniel McNally got all in preflop for 68,000 and was up against Roch Cousineau.
Showdown
McNally: 
Cousineau: 
The 
flop was interesting as it gave Cousineau a pair of sevens and the nut low, while McNally picked up a flush draw. Unfortunately for the latter, he would receive no help on the 
turn and 
river, putting an end to his run in tenth place.
With that, the final table is set.

We're Back
Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
The introductions have been made and the players are back in their seats. There is about 40 minute remaining in Level 22, meaning we'll play this one out, get through Level 23, and then take a one-hour dinner break.
Baker and Scotty Rumbling
David "ODB" Baker and Scotty Nguyen have already rumbled in a couple of pots here early at the final table, with the first one seeing Nguyen all in, but then chopping the pot with Baker. They have just played their second hand together and this time some chips would go in the direction of Baker's stack.
It all started with Nguyen opening the pot to 45,000 from middle position. Baker called on the button and the blinds folded. Both players then checked the 
flop and a 
was dealt on the turn. This time when Nguyen would check, Baker would slide out a bet of 100,000. That was too much for Nguyen as he folded his cards. As Baker raked in the pot, he tabled 
.

For Whom the Bell Tolls
Action folded to Chris Bell in the hijack and he raised it up to 40,000. Yuval Bronshtein made the call from the button, the blinds got out of the way, and the flop came down 
.
Bell paused for a moment before leading out for 100,000, which proved enough as Bronshtein folded.
