Jose Carlos Garcia Eliminated in 19th Place ($19,948)

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Jose Carlos Garcia
Jose Carlos Garcia

Jackduyph Duong opened to 70,000 and Jose Carlos Garcia raised that to 180,000. It was folded back to Duong who put out an even 400,000 four-bet. Garcia moved all in and was snap-called by Duong who had picked up aces again with {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} while Garcia had {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. The flop came {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} moving Duong even further into the lead.

There's always a sweat though and the {2-Diamonds} on the turn would give Garcia a flush draw. The river paired the board with the {3-Hearts}, however, and a relieved Duong took down the pot while eliminating Garcia in 19th place. The tournament is now being combined into two tables. We'll have the seating assignments and updated chip counts shortly.

Duong Wins Epic Hand to Surge Into Chip Lead

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Jackduyph Duong
Jackduyph Duong

It started with a raise to 55,000 from Jackduyph Duong from early position. Theodore Driscoll called from the small blind and Brandon Eisen put in a raise from the big blind to 159,000. Duong studied the raise amount and casually tossed out a stack of T25,000 chips with one T5,000 chip thrown in for good measure for a total bet of 330,000. Driscoll folded and Eisen wasted little time in announcing that he was all in.

Duong took a very quick look back at his cards and called.

A player at the table said "I know Brandon has a big hand" and he did... {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}. It wasn't big enough though as Duong held {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}. The flop would change everything for the two players as it came {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} to give Eisen the lead in the hand. His rail let out a roar, excited at the prospect of the huge pot their man was about to win.

"Hold on," said Eisen, well aware of how quickly poker can taketh away.

The turn was the {10-Spades} giving Duong a gutshot straight draw.

The dealer wasted no time for dramatic effect quickly putting out the {A-Diamonds}. Duong jumped out of his chair, his hat almost falling off in the process.

"Sick," he said, pumping his fist.

A stunned Eisen took it all in, quietly slumping back in his chair. The pot moved Duong to 2.425 million and Eisen was down to 405,000 after the cooler.

Jeffrey Gibralter Eliminated in 20th Place ($19,948)

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Jeffrey Gibralter
Jeffrey Gibralter

Wladislaw Eckhardt opened for 48,000 and Jeffrey Gibralter moved all in for 290,000. After getting a count, Eckhardt made the call and the two players hands were tabled:

Eckhardt: {Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Gibralter: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

The flop came {A-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs} keeping Gibralter in the lead. The turn gave Eckhardt counterfeit outs as it was the {A-Spades}. Any nine, five, queen, or jack would give him the pot.

The river was one of those outs... the {J-Diamonds}... and a disappointed Gibralter let out a moan and shook his fist as he was eliminated in 20th place.

Julian Parmann Eliminated in 21st Place ($19,948)

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Julian Parmann
Julian Parmann

Another all in and a call after preflop action between Igor Dubinskyy and Julian Parmann with the latter at risk but the better hand preflop.

Parmann: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Dubinskyy: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

The {8-Spades}{A-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop saw Dubinsky improve thanks to the three-outer and he shrugged his shoulders after the {7-Diamonds} turn and the {6-Clubs} river, apologizing for the suckout that had just happened.

Tommy Hoard Eliminated in 22nd Place ($19,948)

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Tommy Hoard
Tommy Hoard

Brandon Eisen opened to 55,000 from the cutoff and Tommy Hoard moved all in for slightly more than 400,000 from the button. Jackduyph Duong moved all in from the small blind and Eisen quickly got out of the way. Hoard turned over {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} and Duong {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}. A queen on the {Q-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop moved Duong ahead of Hoard's aces and nothing would change on the {9-Spades}{6-Hearts} turn and river.

"Gotta go, hey look at that," said Hoard. "Good luck everybody and congrats!"

Brett Shaffer Eliminated in 23rd Place ($19,948)

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Brett Shaffer
Brett Shaffer

In the very first hand back from the break, two-times WSOP bracelet winner Brett Shaffer was all in for his last 120,000 chips with {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} and had a coin flip against the {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} of Michael Tureniec. The Swede took the lead on the {J-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{A-Spades} turn and the {J-Diamonds} river sent Shaffer to the rail.

Mykhailo Krasnytskyi Eliminated in 25th Place ($19,948)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Mykhailo Krasnytskyi
Mykhailo Krasnytskyi

It was folded to Mykhailo Krasnytskyi in the small blind who moved all in for slightly more than 400,000 in chips. Xiao Peng in the big blind asked for a count and as the dealer was counting she announced a call. The two players hands were turned over:

Krasnytskyi: {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Peng: {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} keeping Peng in the lead and giving her a flush draw as well. The turn was the {A-Diamonds} to give Peng a flush. Her opponent could still chop the pot if the river was a diamond bigger than a five. It was the {A-Hearts}, however, and Krasnytskyi was eliminated in 25th place. Peng moved her stack to 910,000, a far cry from the 150,000 she had a little while ago.

Robert McLaughlin Eliminated in 26th Place ($19,948)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Robert McLaughlin
Robert McLaughlin

Robert McLaughlin three-bet shoved over the top of a button raise from Arpad Balazs and was called by the Hungarian with {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. It was a flip against {A-Spades}{8-Clubs} and McLaughlin improved on the {9-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop. The {3-Clubs} turn blanked and the cruel {6-Spades} river sent McLaughlin to the payout desk.

Balazs then won another pot against Eric Baldwin to increase his stack further.

Asi Moshe moved all in from early position for 180,000 in chips and the action folded to Theodore Driscoll on the button. He just called and the two players in the blinds released their cards.

Moshe: {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Driscoll: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}

As usual there was a sweat on the {4-Spades}{5-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{10-Spades} board but ultimately Moshe could not improve anymore and has been eliminated in 27th place.

Jose Carlos Garcia
Jose Carlos Garcia

It was a three-way all in between Brian Pinkus, Julius Coleman and Jose Carlos Garcia and the Sunday Million winner from Poland not only had the most chips but also the best hand out of the three players.

Pinkus: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Coleman: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Garcia: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

Once the {3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{J-Spades} board was completed, a new chip leader was born with 1.2 million in chips.
