Erik Mason Eliminated in 25th Place ($2,096); David Neiman Eliminated in 26th Place ($2,096)
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Erik Mason made it 200,000 to go from early position with just 80,000 behind. David Neiman called all in for his last 180,000 from the hijack and Angelo Perez called from the cutoff with the covering stack.
Mason shoved for his last 80,000 as the flop came down 5♣2♠5♠, and Perez called to put both players at risk.
David Neiman: Q♣10♣ 
Erik Mason: K♠K♦
Angelo Perez: A♥Q♦
Mason was ahead with his Cowboys and just had to fade some clubs or an ace to triple up. The 8♦ turn meant Neilman's fate was sealed. The river was the A♦ to give Perez the best hand with a pair of aces, sending two players to the cashier's desk.
