Ryan Schmidt Eliminated in 13th Place ($12,122)
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
The eliminations have come fast and furious here in Level 19. The latest to go was Ryan Schmidt, who was dispatched by chip leader Manig Loeser.
It happened when Schmidt got his stack of approximately 165,000 all in preflop holding the 
and was called by the 
of Manig. The 
flop paired both players' ace, but Manig's queen was the better kicker. The 
turn meant Schmidt needed to catch a nine on the river to survive, but since this is an elimination post you already know that didn't happen. Instead the 
peeled off to send Schmidt home in 13th place.
We're now down to 12 players which means it's time for the two-table redraw.
