Level 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Sean Troha potted from the small blind to 120,000 and Yuri Dzivielevski called from the big blind.

On the 8♦6♠4♦ flop, Troha led for 125,000, Dzivielevski raised to 325,000, and Troha called.

The turn brought the 2♦. Troha decided to lead pot for 630,000 effective which sent Dzivielevski into the tank for over six minutes. He eventually called and the cards hit their backs.

Yuri Dzivielevski: A♦8♠5♥5♣ All in
Sean Troha: A♣Q♠3♠2♥

The river was the 9♣ and the pot was chopped. The pair of eights was good for the high for Dzivielevski and Troha had the low with ace-three.

Robert Tanita raised to 90,000 first-to-act and was called by Luis Velador in the small blind and Tyler Brown in the big blind.

Action checked through on the A♦10♥7♣ flop and Velador checked to Brown on the A♥ turn. Brown bet 220,000, which got a call from Tanita and a fold from Velador.

The 7♥ completed the board and Brown bet 750,000. This time Tanita let his hand go and Brown padded his stack.

Level 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Joshua Thibodaux raised to 125,000 from under the gun, Tyler Brown three-bet to 375,000 from the cutoff, Thibodaux four-bet pot to 1,200,000, and Brown called.

The flop was K♦7♥7♦. Thibodaux moved all-in for 850,000 and Brown snap-called.

Joshua Thibodaux: A♠A♦10♦2♦ All in
Tyler Brown: A♥A♣10♠7♠

It was an aces against aces confrontation, but Brown had made trip sevens on the flop. Thibodaux was drawing to running low cards or queen-jack for half or a diamond for the scoop but the 2♣J♥ runout secured his elimination in ninth place.

Level 23 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Luis Velador raised to 150,000 on the button and was three-bet to 500,000 by Sean Troha in the small blind. It was folded back to Velador, who called.

Troha bet enough to put Velador all in for approximately 500,000 on the 6♣9♥4♠ flop and Velador went deep into the tank before eventually deciding to call and put himself at risk.

Luis Velador: A♣K♠10♣5♠ All in
Sean Troha: A♦J♥9♣2♦
