Level 16
Alex Livingston
Alex Livingston

Alex Livingston: {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}/{6-Spades}{2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}/{j-Hearts}
Ahmed Mohamed: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}/{a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs}/{q-Hearts}

Alex Livingston pushed the last of his remaining chips into the pot on sixth street and was called by Ahmed Mohamed.

It was Mohamed ahead with trip sixes versus the at-risk Livingston who held two pairs of eights and deuces.

Mohamed filled up on seventh street, sixes full of queens, and that locked it up, which in-turn eliminated Livingston in 21st place for which he took home $16,340 in cash.

Yehuda Buchalter

Yehuda Buchalter:{k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}/{k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{j-Spades}/{7-Diamonds}
Alex Livingston: {a-Diamonds}{5-Spades}/{8-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Spades}/{4-Hearts}
Ian O'Hara: {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}/{a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{a-Hearts}/{6-Diamonds}

Yehuda Buchalter moved all-in on fourth street and was called by Alex Livingston and Ian O'Hara.

Fifth, sixth, and seventh street saw O'Hara fire out a big bet on all three streets, and Livingston made the calls.

All hands were then tabled due to the all-in and it was the trip aces held by O'Hara for the high half, and Livingston took down the low half with an eight-seven low, and Buchalter was eliminated from the tournament on the true bubble.

The remaining 22 players are each in the money and will rake home a minimum of $16,340 in cash.

Sean Yu: {j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}/{3-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}/{2-Spades}
Marco Johnson: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}/{5-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{q-Spades}{5-Spades}/{8-Spades}

Sean Yu bet all in on sixth street and was called by Buchalter and Johnson.

After all the dust had settled it was the two pairs, sixes and fives, held by Johnson that was awarded the high half of the pot, while Buchalter's six-perfect low took down the other half.

With this hand, Yu was eliminated from the tournament.
