Daniel Holzner Eliminated in 9th Place ($900,000)

Christian Zetzsche

Level 39 : Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

Hand #43: Steven Jones raised to 3,200,000 and Daniel Holzner three-bet to 16,300,000 with 100,000 behind. It folded back to Jones who reraised and the Italian called all-in.

Daniel Holzner: A♦J♣
Steven Jones: 10♠10♥

It was a classic flip and the rails on both sides of the Thunderdome got loud. In the end, Jones' rail had reason to chant as the Q♣Q♠3♥2♥4♠ board ended the run of apple tree farmer Holzner in ninth place for $900,000.

Level 39 : Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

Hand #45: Juan Maceiras open-jammed a stack of 17,500,000 from middle position and Toby Lewis called in the big blind.

Juan Maceiras: K♥9♣
Toby Lewis: A♦10♥

Maceiras needed to hit a king or a nine to keep his Main Event dreams alive and couldn't do so on the flop of 2♠A♠J♠ that had him drawing thin as Lewis paired his ace. The 4♣ turn had Maceiras drawing dead ahead of the K♣ river and the Day 7 chip leader was eliminated in eighth place for $1,125,000.

Hand #52: Steven Jones opened to 3,200,000 from the hijack and Adam Walton called in the next seat with the 9♣8♣. Toby Lewis then three-bet jammed a stack of 34,300,000 from the big blind. Jones counted his chips before calling to put Lewis at risk.

Toby Lewis: K♠J♣
Steven Jones: 10♠10♥

Lewis was flipping for his Main Event life as the flop landed 7♣3♠A♥ to keep Jones ahead with tens. The A♠ turn didn't change anything and the 2♣ river confirmed Lewis' elimination in seventh place for $1,425,000.

Level 39 : Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

Hand #84: Dean Hutchison raised to 18,400,000 with 4,000,000 behind and Jan-Peter Jachtmann moved all-in from the big blind, as the Scotsman called it off.

Dean Hutchison: 5♦5♣
Jan-Peter Jachtmann:7♠7♥

The dominated pair failed to improve on the J♠9♣2♥ flop and A♠ turn, leaving Hutchison with only two outs. It was a close call with the 4♦ river but Hutchison missed in the final hand before the second 20-minute break to finish in sixth place for $1,850,000.
