Level 31 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Daniel Buzgon
Daniel Buzgon

Daniel Buzgon moved all in for his last 1,300,000 and Ke Chen, next to act, re-shoved for 2,060,000. Ronald Ibbetson gave it some thought before folding {k-}{j-}.

Daniel Buzgon: {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Ke Chen: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Buzgon hit a pair of nines on the board of {8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, but it wasn't enough to overcome the two queens of Chen as he hit the rail in 17th.

Level 33 : 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Justin Turner
Justin Turner

Action folded to Fausto Valdez in the small blind who shoved all in. Justin Turner in the big blind snap-called for about 2,000,000.

Justin Turner: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Fausto Valdez: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

Valdez hit a three on the {k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop, then made trips on the {3-Clubs} turn. In need of help, Turner didn't get it on the {j-Clubs} river. The stacks were counted down, and Valdez barely had Turner covered.

Denys Chufarin Eliminated in 11th Place ($12,944)

Level 33 : 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Denny Chufarin
Denny Chufarin

Jonas Lopas raised before the flop before Denys Chufarin shoved for around 4,000,000. Ronald Ibbetson then acted out of turn and re-shoved.

"Did you say all in? I call," Lopas said as he showed {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. Chufarin had {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} and Ibbetson {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. Lopas had the shortest of the three stacks

The {9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{6-Hearts} board didn't provide any help to Chufarin or Ibbetson, and Lopas doubled up through both players, while Ibbetson eliminated the Day 1 chip leader.

Players are now redrawing for seats at the unofficial final table.
