Minkyun Kim Eliminated in 11th Place ($3,794)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Minkyun Kim
Minkyun Kim

Joe Chang was all in from the big blind with the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} versus the {2-Spades}{2-Clubs} of Minkyun Kim, who had him very slightly covered.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, the turn was the {7-Spades}, and the river killed the ducks as it came the {a-Hearts} and gave Chang a pair of Aces. Kim was left with just under 100,000 which he lost on the next hand to be eliminated.

Kelli Phillips Eliminated in 12th ($3,043)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Kelli Phillips
Kelli Phillips

Kelli Phillips, with the impending blinds rapidly approaching, decided to go all-in blind before the last card had even been dealt. She was given protection by Alfonso Dominguez who raised to 225,000, but then he was three-bet by Brandon West to 400,000. Dominguez called the extra chips and the three players went to a flop, with Kelli at risk.

The flop of {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades} was accompanied by an all-in announcement by West, which prompted a hasty fold from Dominguez. The two remaining players tabled their cards.

Kelli Phillips: {6-}{9-}
Brandon West: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}

The turn of {3-} left Kelli only with an eight to hit for a straight but it was not to be as a {q-} came on the river.

Phillips was eliminated in 12th place but left with a smile and said she was looking forward to the upcoming Housewarming Event on Thursday.

Charles Nguyen
Charles Nguyen

Charles Nguyen open-shoved for 580,000 from the cutoff and Wyatt Frost re-shoved for more from the small blind. The big blind got out of the way and Nguyen was at risk.

Charles Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Wyatt Frost: {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Nguyen was in front with his better kicker but the {q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} runout gave Frost trip nines to win the pot.

Kenny Hallaert shoved preflop for his last 300,000 and found a caller in chip leader Gonzalo Gonzalez.

Kenny Hallaert: {k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Gonzalo Gonzalez: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

James Sutherland Eliminated in 16th Place ($2,483)

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
James Sutherland
James Sutherland

Gonzalo Gonzalez already had 280,000 committed when James Sutherland shoved for 470,000 more. Gonzalez thought it over before tossing in a call and Sutherland was at risk.

James Sutherland: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Gonzalo Gonzalez: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Sutherland was ahead but that changed on the {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop. The turn {9-Diamonds} brought some additional outs to Sutherland but the river {3-Diamonds} was not what he needed as his run came to an end.

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Joseph Phillips
Joseph Phillips

Joseph Phillips shoved his stack preflop and action folded around to Vikram Vijay.

"I'll call you this one time," said Vijay, as he threw in a chip to put Phillips at risk.

Joseph Phillips: {a-}{q-}
Vikram Vijay: {7-}{7-}

The board of {3-}{j-}{j-}{10-}{6-} meant Vijay's pocket pair was good to scoop the pot and thus eliminated Phillips in 17th place.
