Daniel Johnson Eliminated in 23rd Place ($18,586)

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

It was back to back losses that sent Daniel Johnson to the rail. First he raise-called Usman Siddique's all in and found himself behind with {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} against Siddique's {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}. The board ran out {4-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, giving Siddique the double up.

The next hand Johnson lost a flip with pocket {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} against Christopher Fisher's {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}. The first card out on the {a-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Hearts} flop put him on the back foot and he couldn't recover on the {2-Clubs} turn or {a-Diamonds} river.

Daniel Neilson Elminated in 24th Place ($18,586)

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Daniel Neilson
Daniel Neilson

It was a classic cooler with two premium hands dealt on the table, it was no surprise that all the chips went into the middle preflop.

Sammy Lafleur: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Daniel Neilson: {q-}{q-}

Neilson was on the wrong side of it and couldn't find help with a completed board reading {6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{8-Hearts} and he headed towards the door. Lafleur has a huge stack after that hand, putting him in the chip lead.

Shi Chen Eliminated in 25th Place ($18,586)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Shaun Deeb opened to 200,000 for the second time in two hands and Patrick Eskandar moved all in for the second time too.

It folded round to Shi Chen in the big blind who called all in. Deeb let it go and the two players turned over their cards.

Patrick Eskandar: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Shi Chen: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

There was an ace in the window on the {2-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Spades} board, giving Eskandar a set. A {q-Diamonds} turn gave Chen a set and he was looking for either a spade that did not pair the board, or the case queen to stay alive. The river was the {7-Diamonds} instead though and Chen headed towards the payouts desk, while Eskandar started to stack his newly acquired chips.

Maxwell Young Eliminated in 26th Place ($18,586)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Carlos Chang raised it up to 250,000 from under-the-gun and when action folded around to Maxwell Young in the small blind he moved all in. The big-blind player folded and Chang made the call.

Maxwell Young: {k-Spades}{7-Spades}
Carlos Chang: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and Young was eliminated in 27th place.

Iyer with a Monster Stack After Eliminating Gross

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Jeff Gross
Jeff Gross

Jeff Gross's run has come to an end after moving all in preflop for around 1,500,000 with {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and running into Abhinav Iyer's pocket {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}.

Gross couldn't find an ace on the {7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Spades} board and he hits the rail just shy of the table redraw. Meanwhile Iyer is in a commanding position with a huge stack now.

Nguyen Eliminated by Iyer

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

The action picked up on the river on a board of {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{a-Clubs} in a four-way pot with a small side pot and Tam Nguyen, the start-of-day chip leader, all in.

The big blind player checked, Abhinav Iyer bet 350,000, Jacob Seale made the call and the big-blind player check-folded.

Tam Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Abhinav Iyer: {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Jacob Seale: {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

Iyer took both the main and side pots with the flush and Nguyen was eliminated from the tournament.

Back to Back Jacks for Johnson

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Adam Johnson just had jacks two hands in a row and he won with the first and lost with the second.

In the first hand, he called an all in after an open and a three-bet shove from [Removed:174]. His {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} won on the {4-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} board against Tamasauskas's {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}.

The second hand was versus Ryan Leng. Once again all the chips went in preflop, with Leng shipping all in with {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} but running into Johnson's {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. Leng made a set on the {4-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop and there was no jack on the {q-Spades} turn or {3-Hearts} river, leaving Johnson only slightly better off from where he was two hands ago.
