Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Frank Funaro and Sanjeev Kapoor both had their chips and bounty tickets in the middle before any cards were dealt, however it would only be Kapoor who had any chance of pulling the top prize of $250,000, as he had the covering stack.

Frank Funaro K♠8♠ All in
Sanjeev Kapoor A♦K♦

The 3♦3♠10♠ flop gave a glimmer of hope to Funaro, who now needed any eight or any spade to take the lead. However, his “spade me, baby” request fell on deaf ears, and Kapoor picked up his bounty when the 10♥ and K♥ did not help Funaro improve. Kapoor went on to pick up a cool $25,000 from his myster chest, leaving the big prize up for grabs.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Jakob Miegel was all in from the small blind against the bigger-stacked Isaac Kempton on the button.

Jakob Miegel: 10♣10♦ All in
Isaac Kempton: A♥8♠

Miegel was far in front and stayed that way on the 3♠3♦J♦ flop and 7♠ turn, but the A♦ landed on the river to give Kempton the best hand for a knockout.

"Where are you finding these cards?" someone asked Kempton.

"From the deck," Kempton replied.

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Mihai Manole was taking his sweet time with a decision, one away from a $1877 pay jump. Mike Matusow had shoved his 260,000 stack, good for 13 big blinds, on the button. The small blind got out of the way, leaving only Manole, who clearly wasn’t in any rush to make a decision.

With his big blind and ante already in the middle, he had only eight big blinds behind, and would’ve been at risk if he made the call. Eventually, a player at the table called clock, and he waited for the five-second countdown before begrudgingly throwing in his chips and flipping over his cards.

Mihai Manole A♥K♦ All in
Mike Matusow A♠Q♦

Matusow was left with peanuts after the 2♣9♣6♥5♥A♦ runout.

Player	Chips	Progress
Mihai Manole	400,000 245,000	245,000
Mike Matusow	75,000 305,000	305,000

Sued was dominated and couldn't improve as the board ran out A♣7♣J♦9♥J♣ to mark his elimination.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Alejandro Peinado raised from middle position to 50,000, and was looked up by Stefan Stoll in the hijack. Mitchell Halverson then shoved his 400,000 stack on the button. Peinado tank folded, while Stoll tank called.

Mitchell Halverson A♣J♠ All in
Stefan Stoll 3♦3♠

Stoll picked up his first bounty of the tournament after making a boat on a 2♦7♠5♥7♦3♥ board, and was rewarded with $5,000 for his efforts.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Shahryarali Eslami opened to 55,000 in early position and Shannon Shorr called in middle position before Sanjeev Kapoor three-bet jammed a stack of 275,000 in late position. Only Shorr called.

Sanjeev Kapoor: 8♠8♣ All in
Shannon Shorr: K♠Q♥

Kapoor's eights held up for a double as the board ran out 7♠6♠10♦10♣A♠.
