Andoni Larrabe raised to 250,000 and Garrett Greer three-bet all in from the big blind for 2,265,000. Larrabe asked for a count, Greer gave him one immediately and after about 20 seconds the Spaniard called.

Larrabe: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Greer: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

The flop brought {8-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Spades} and Greer stayed out of trouble. Greer's rail kept chanting for a whole bunch of cards that would keep their friend in the tournament, and the turn brought the {7-Clubs}. This card gave Larrabe an inside straight draw, but the river brought the {J-Hearts} to give the Spaniard a winning pair of jacks.

The entire room went silent as Greer stared quietly at the card that had just taken away his hopes and dreams of making the November Nine.

Larrabe celebrated on his own, but the rail remained silent.

As Greer made his way out of the tournament area everyone put their hands together, and the 32nd place finisher shook his head in disbelief once more before he headed towards the payout desk.

Jacks Do It For Velador

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Kyle Keranen raised to 250,000 from the hijack only to have Luis Velador three-bet to 650,000 from the small blind. Keranen called the three-bet and the two were heads up to the {Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop. Velador came out with a bet of 625,000, sending Keranen into the tank.

After about 90 seconds, Keranen announced a raise to 1.35 million. Velador called to see fourth street. The {K-Spades} fell on the turn and both players slowed with a check. The {Q-Spades} paired the board on the river and Velador checked. Keranen checked as well, allowing Velador to show {J-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. Keranen mucked his cards and Velador picked up the pot.

Velador took down the sizable pot and now has 15.81 million in chips. Keranen, on the other hand, has dropped to 4.835 million.

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante
Robert Park - 33rd place
Robert Park - 33rd place

Andrey Zaichenko opened to 260,000 and Robert Park moved all in next to act for 2,055,000. Once the action returned to Zaichenko, he went into the tank for several minutes before making the call.

Park: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Zaichenko: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

With Park racing for his tournament life, the {3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop changed little as the {10-Clubs} landed on the turn.

Needing an ace or queen, Park would unfortunately see the {5-Hearts} land on the river to send him to the rail in 33rd place as the Russian climbed to 5.7 million in chips.
