Steve Landfish Eliminated in 10th Place ($16,211)
Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
After tripling to 50,000 it appear Steve Landfish might make a comeback here in Level 20. That proved not to be the case as he was just eliminated by Todd Witteles in tenth place.
It happened when Witteles raised under the gun and Landfish three-bet. Witteles pushed back with a four-bet and Landfish made the call, bringing about a 
flop. Witteles bet, Landfish raised all in and Witteles made a quick call.
Witteles: 
Landfish: 
Landfish held a big pocket pair, but Witteles' proved to be bigger. The 
turn gave both players a full house, but Witteles' jacks full of kings reigned supreme. Landfish was drawing dead, and after the 
was put out on the river, he exited the unofficial final table in tenth place.
With that, the tournament is down to the official final table of nine. The remaining players are relocating to the ESPN Main Stage where official chip counts will be documented and introductions made. Cards should be back in the air shortly.
