Preflop William Guerrero raised to 25,000. Jia Liu moved all in for a little less than 200,000 from the big blind. Action folded back to Guerrero who instantly called.

Guerrero: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Liu: {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}

The board ran out {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{j-Hearts} giving Guerrero the nut flush and the pot, eliminating Liu in 19th place.

The final 18 players are now redrawing for seats and we will update with complete chip counts soon.

Rabinowitz Puts Track Shoes On, Knocks out [Removed:250]

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Jonathan [Removed:250] pushed his last 215,000 into the middle, and everyone folded to Darren Rabinowitz in the big blind. He tanked for a minute and expressed his indecision to his rail before calling off the majority of his chips.

[Removed:250]: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Rabinowitz: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The flop quickly ended most of the suspense: {8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Rabinowitz's flopped boat help easily when the {6-Clubs} and {q-Clubs} finished out the board, and [Removed:250] was sent home with $14,067.

Yoshimichi Calls Down

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Makoto Yoshimichi raised from the small blind after everyone folded to him, and Ryan Tepen came along from the big blind.

After {3-Spades}{j-Clubs}{2-Spades} flopped, Yoshimichi check-called a 25,000 bet from Tepen. Yoshimichi did the same to a 66,000 bet after a {10-Clubs} turned. A {q-Hearts} came on the river, and both players checked. Yoshimichi rolled over the {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}, and a displeased Tepen mucked his hand.

Berger on the Uptick, Back in the Chip Lead

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

On a flop of {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{2-Spades} with more than 100,000 in the pot we saw both Charles Sylvestre and Seth Berger check. On the {J-Hearts} turn, Sylvestre checked again. This time, Berger bet 75,000. Sylvestre made the call.

The river was the {3-Hearts} and Sylvestre checked for a third time. Berger grabbed two mounds of orange T5,000 chips and made a big bet of 250,000. After thinking about it for nearly a minute, Sylvestre made the call. Berger showed {K-Spades}{J-Clubs} for a turned full house.

Sylvestre made a disgusted face and turned up his {K-Hearts} but didn't show his other card. With that pot, Berger has retaken the chip lead.

Yoshimichi Forces a Fold

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Charles Sylvestre raised from middle position, and Makoto Yoshimichi, on his immediate left, was the only caller.

The flop came {6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{6-Spades}, and Sylvestre fired a continuation bet of 25,000. Yoshimichi made the call, and the two saw a turn of {a-Diamonds}. Yoshimichi again called Sylvestre's bet, this time for 60,000. Sylvestre finally checked after the {j-Hearts} hit the river, prompting Yoshimichi to fire 150,000. Sylvestre folded.
