Jason Koon Eliminated in 4th Place

Level 19 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Jason Koon - 4th place
Jason Koon - 4th place

From under the gun, Jason Koon moved all in for 775,000 and JC Tran called from the big blind.

Koon: {A-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Tran: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

With Koon in dominated shape, the {K-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop didn't help, but the {5-Clubs} on the turn now gave him an additional four outs to a six to stay alive.

Unfortunately for Koon, the river landed the {10-Spades} and he was sent to the rail in 4th place leaving the remaining three players guaranteed a $250,000 payday.

Hachem Crippled

Level 19 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

From the button, JC Tran moved all in for 520,000 and Joe Hachem shoved all in from the small blind for 530,000.

Tran: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}
Hachem: {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

The {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} board would see Tran make a full house while leaving Hachem crippled with just an ante.

Tens for Drinan

Level 19 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Connor Drinan attempted to raise to 90,000, but with it being an under-raise, he was bound to a call as Joe Hachem checked his big blind.

The {K-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop was checked through as the {6-Clubs} on the turn saw Drinan bet 100,000 with Hachem calling.

The river of the {8-Diamonds} saw both players check as Hachem tabled his {Q-Spades}{2-Diamonds} only to lose to Drinan's {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

Queen-High for Lindgren

Level 18 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Connor Drinan limped the small blind and Erick Lindgren checked as both players checked the {K-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop.

When the turn landed the {A-Diamonds}, Drinan bet 60,000 and Lindgren called as both players checked the {K-Clubs} on the river.

Drinan tabled his {10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, but it would be Lindgren's {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for queen-high that would see him scoop the pot.

Scott Vener Eliminated in 6th Place

Level 18 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Connor Drinan opened to 130,000 from the cutoff and Scott Vener moved all in from the big blind for roughly 950,000 and Drinan instantly called.

Drinan: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Vener: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

The {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop kept Drinan in the lead, but the {4-Clubs} on the turn now gave Vener outs to a straight and a flush along with his pair draw.

Unfortunately for Vener, the river landed the {10-Diamonds} and he was sent to the rail in 6th place as Drinan climbed to 3.4 million in chips.
