Jonathan Duhamel - 10th Place

Jeff Lisandro raised all in for his last 24,000 from the cutoff and Viacheslav Zhukov three-bet from the button. Jonathan Duhamel called from the big blind and the three players took a flop.

The flop came down {k-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Duhamel checked. Zhukov checked it back and both players did the same when the {2-Spades} struck fourth street. The river was the {4-Clubs} and Duhamel check-called a bet from Zhukov.

Zhukov showed {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{5-Clubs} for a seventy-five low while Lisandro showed {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for top two pair which was good for the high. Both players chopped up Duhamel who was left short stacked while Lisandro was able to stay alive in the tournament.

Duhamel was all in the next hand against Robert Mizrachi but failed to gain any traction. He was eliminated in 10th place and his elimination has set in motion our official final table.

Julie Schneider - 12th Place

Brian Hastings opened with a raise from the cutoff and found a three-bet from Julie Schneider from the small blind. Action came back to Hastings and he flat called.

The flop {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Schneider moved all in.

"That's a really good flop for me," said Hastings, who dropped in a call.

At that, Schneider fanned {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{5-Clubs} for top set. The table shared a good laugh as Hastings showed {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and needed to catch up to eliminate Schneider.

Hastings did exactly that as the {j-Diamonds} ripped off on the turn to give him Broadway. The river was the {7-Hearts} and Schneider saw her exit in 12th place. She will collect $19,788 in tournament winnings.

George Danzer - 14th Place

George Danzer raised from the cutoff and was three-bet by Danny Fuhs on the button. Action came back to Danzer and he called to see a {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{A-Clubs} flop. Both players checked and the {Q-Spades} hit the turn. Danzer led out with a bet and Fuhs raised him.

Danzer went into the tank for quite some time and eventually folded, showing {A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} face up for two pair. Fuhs showed {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{5-Spades} for top two and a flush draw, affirming that Danzer made the correct laydown. This hand left Danzer with just one big bet behind.

The next hand, Danzer raised from the hijack and it was once again Fuhs who three-bet. Action came back to Danzer and he moved all in .

Danzer: {Q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}
Fuhs: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Barry Hartheimer raised from under the gun and Danny Fuhs three-bet from the next seat over. Action trickled around to Jonathan Duhamel in the hijack and he called the three-bet. Hartheimer called all in for his last 26,000 and the three took a flop.

The dealer spread out {2-Hearts}{J-Spades}{5-Diamonds} on the felt and Fuhs checked. Duhamel led out and Fuhs called. The {9-Hearts} turned and and Fuhs checked for a second time. Duhamel cut out another bet and Fuhs called. The {6-Clubs} finished off the board and the action repeated with a check, a bet, and a call.

Fuhs rolled over {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} playing two aces for his high, but was ultimately behind Duhamel's {A-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} which played a four and a trey for a straight.

Maria Ho (Day 2) - 19th Place

We picked up with the action on the flop to see Christopher George, Viacheslav Zhukov, and Maria Ho looking down at the felt. The flop read {J-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} and Zhukov checked. George fired out a bet and Ho cut out a raise. Zhukov flat called and George three-bet. Ho called all in for her last 6,000 and Zhukov called the full bet.

The {6-Hearts} hit the turn and Zhukov checked. George bet out and Zhukov called. The {4-Hearts} finished off the board and Zhukov led with a bet. George called.

Ho tabled {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{J-Spades}{J-Hearts} for a flopped top set for her high- but it was unfortunately bested by George's {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a straight.

Zhukov showed {A-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} for the nut low and took down half of the pot. Ho was sent packing in 19th place and her elimination has prompted a total re-draw for the final two tables.
