Michael "BrockLesnar" Holtz Eliminated in 10th Place ($10,000)

Level 37 : 50,000/100,000, 12,500 ante

Action folded to Michael "BrockLesnar" Holtz who raised all in for 706,487 from the small blind and Drew "casualcarl" Gonzalez called from the big blind.

Drew "casualcarl" Gonzalez: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Michael "BrockLesnar" Holtz: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

Holtz had Gonzalez dominated until the {7-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop appeared pairing the queen of Gonzalez.

The {3-Hearts} turn didn't change a thing as Holtz needed a king or a jack to stay alive but the {8-Diamonds} river ended his tournament on the final table bubble.

Russell Thomas

"chuckybrown9" raised to 275,000 from the hijack, Russell "RussDT" Thomas jammed all in from the big blind having "chuckybrown9" covered who called.

Thomas had the {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was looking to stay alive vs the {a-Spades}{8-Hearts} of "chuckybrown9".

The flop came the {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs} to send Thomas behind. The turn was the {a-Clubs} to further the damage and the {a-Diamonds} on the river was overkill to eliminate Thomas.

The {8-Clubs} turn was no help to Ioli as he needed a king on the river but the {3-Clubs} appeared and ended his tournament.
