Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Lars Bonding
Lars Bonding

Lars Bonding raised to 425,000 in the cutoff and Zhen Cai defended the big blind. On the {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop, Cai checked and Bonding bet 425,000. Cai made it 1.5 million. Bonding, who had about 5 million, shoved all in and Cai quickly called.

Zhen Cai: {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Lars Bonding: {a-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Cai had a world of outs and found one right away on the {j-Clubs} turn. Bonding slid his seat back and the {9-Hearts} confirmed his demise.

Jesse Vilchez Eliminated in 56th Place ($142,215)

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Jesse Vilchez
Jesse Vilchez

The action was folded around to the blinds and Nicholas Marchington and Jesse Vilchez got all of their chips in the middle. Marchington was the player at risk for 7,190,000 and held the dominating hand.

Marchington showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and was up against the {k-Clubs}{j-Spades} of Vilchez. The flop fell {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} to give Vilchez a straight draw but a diamond would be no good for him. The {4-Spades} on the turn and the {6-Clubs} on the river bricked out and Marchington doubled up, leaving Vilchez with just 150,000.

In the next hand, Marchington raised to 425,000 on the button and Vilchez stuck in the last of his chips from the small blind. Garry Gates re-raised to what looked like 1,300,000 and Marchington quickly folded.

Garry Gates: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Jesse Vilchez: {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

The board ran out {q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{k-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Gates' pair of queens was enough to eliminate Vilchez from the tournament.

Florian Duta Eliminated in 57th Place ($142,215)

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Florian Duta
Florian Duta

Thomer Pidun opened to 400,000 in middle position and Florian Duta called from the big blind to see a {4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop.

Duta moved all in for roughly 1,350,000 and Pidun called.

Duta: {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Pidun: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Duta was drawing to a double gutshot straight draw and pair outs that weren't clubs.

The turn and river landed the {k-Hearts} and {j-Spades}, and Duta was eliminated in 57th place for a $142,215 payday.

Alex Winter Eliminated in 58th Place ($142,215)

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Alex Winter
Alex Winter

Down to 2,490,000, Alex Winter shoved all in from early position. Action folded to Robert Heidorn in the big blind. He confirmed the count and thought about 30 seconds before calling with {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

Winter was in great shape with {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The {2-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} board looked set to ship him a double, but a {7-Clubs} river doomed him.

Thomas Parkes Eliminated in 59th Place ($142,215)

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Thomas Parkes
Thomas Parkes

Thomas Parkes shoved second to act for 3,635,000. In the hijack, Steven Parrott stuck in his 2.3 million. Lars Bonding tank-folded in the next seat and everyone else released as well.

Thomas Parkes: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Steven Parrott: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

The {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} board brought nothing for Parrott to fear and left Parkes on 1.3 million. Unfortunately for him, there was no time to shove under the gun as Milos Skrbic got balanced to another table. Parkes was forced to commit a large chunk of his stack out of the big blind and called it off against small blind Zhen Cai.

Zhen Cai: {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Thomas Parkes: {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

The {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop and then {10-Clubs} turn gave Cai a straight to lock it up and bust Parkes when he couldn't find a chop on the {4-Spades} river.

Romain Lewis
Romain Lewis

Romain Lewis raised all in for 1,730,000 from early position and Jonathan Cohen isolated with a shove of his own from the next seat over.

Lewis: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Cohen: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, no help to Lewis, ending his run in 60th place.

Level 29 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
William Romaine
William Romaine

Romain Lewis raised to 325,000 from under the gun, and from the small blind, William Romaine moved all in for 3,300,000.

Once the count was confirmed, Mario Navarro pushed all in from the big blind for 4,015,000 and Lewis quickly called.

Romaine: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Lewis: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Navarro: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}

With both Romaine and Navarro at risk, the {4-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} board would see Navarro's aces hold as he near-triples to 11.5 million in chips while Romaine is eliminated in 61st place for a $142,215 payday.

Dan Colpys: {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
Preben Stokkan: {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for Stokkan to flop a higher two pair and keep ahead throughout the rest of the board to eliminate Colpoys in 63rd place with a pay jump to $142,215.

Andy Hwang Eliminated in 64th Place ($117,710)

Level 29 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Andy Hwang
Andy Hwang

From the hijack, Andy Hwang moved all in for 2,720,000, and with the action Milos Skrbic in the small blind, he isolated to 5,080,000.

Hwang: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Skrbic: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Hwang was at risk with his suited paint, and when the flop landed {8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, he picked up a flush draw to go along with live cards.

The turn changed little with the {8-Spades}, and when the river landed the {k-Clubs}, Hwang was eliminated in 64th place for a $117,710 payday.
