Alex Foxen Eliminated in 40th Place ($211,945)

Level 31 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Alex Foxen
Alex Foxen

Oliver Bithell raised to 525,000 from under the gun and Alex Foxen shoved for 3,150,000 from mid-position. Action folded back to Bithell who looked at his cards once more to check what he held before making the call in the end.

Alex Foxen: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Oliver Bithell: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

The flop came {6-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{4-Spades} for Bithell to find another jack for a set.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds} which now meant Bithell improved to a full house and Foxen was drawing dead.

The dealer flipped over the {4-Diamonds} on the river to complete the board as Foxen shook some hands at the table and made his way out of the tournament area in 40th place for $211,945.

Manole Doubles Through Su

Level 31 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

The action folded to Mihai Manole in the small blind and he glanced at his cards. A few seconds later, he announced "everything I have, including my drink," and pushed forward his chips and drink. Timothy Su glanced over at the stack of his table neighbor and called.

Mihai Manole: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Timothy Su: {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}

The {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop let the Romanian rail celebrate, and they continued on the {10-Diamonds} turn and {6-Spades} river as Manole doubled.

Adedapo Ajayi Eliminated in 39th Place ($211,945)

Level 31 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Adedapo Ajayi
Adedapo Ajayi

Adedapo Ajayi opened for 700,000 in the cutoff and Nicholas Marchington defended the big blind. Marchington checked the {7-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop and Ajayi bet 1.5 million. Marchington shoved and Ajayi snap-called with so much force that some of his chips flew off the table. He didn't have the nuts, but {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} was good for the moment against {j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}.

The {j-Clubs} turn changed things in a hurry, leaving Ajayi in need of help on the river. He didn't find any as the {8-Clubs} would be the last card he'd see in the Main Event.

Bithell Gets Chips Back

Level 31 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Oliver Bithell raised to 525,000 from under the gun and Hiroki Nawa defended his big blind.

They both checked through the {q-Clubs}{a-Spades}{3-Hearts} to see the {3-Diamonds} pair the board up on the turn. Nawa bet 325,000 and Bithell called.

The river completed the board with the {j-Clubs}, Nawa continued with a bet of 400,000 but Bithell decided to raise to 2,200,000. This sent Nawa into the tank for several minutes, during which he stared at Bithell a few times and was stared right back at. After a while, Bithell decided to call the clock on him. The floor came over, the dealer explained the situation, and the floor gave Nawa 30 seconds to make a decision. The floor started counting down from five and eventually declared the hand dead.
