Jonathan England Eliminated in 8th Place ($31,772)
Level 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Zachary Peay opened to 320,000 from early position before Dan Matsuzuki raised the pot to around 1,200,000. Jonathan England shipped in his short stack of 620,000 from the big blind and Peay called, leaving the hand three-way to the flop.
Peay checked the 4♣8♥5♦ flop and called once Matsuzuki continued for 850,000. Another check followed the 3♠ turn, but this time Peay got out of the way when Matsuzuki announced a pot-size bet. England was then heads-up for his tournament life.
Jonathan England: A♥K♥7♠5♥
Dan Matsuzuki: A♣A♦10♦2♠
Matsuzuki was ahead the whole way and improved to a wheel on the turn. The K♠ river changed nothing, as England wished his opponents good luck on his way to the payout table in eighth place.
