Adam Hendrix Eliminated in 24th Place ($61,882)
Level 18
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Masato Yokosawa opened to 120,000 under the gun. It folded to Adam Hendrix on the button, who shoved his 675,000 chips in the middle. Yokosawa made a quick call with the covering stack.
Adam Hendrix: A♠Q♦ 
Masato Yokosawa: J♠J♦
All seemed well for Hendrix after the A♦2♦7♦ flop and Q♥ turn, giving him a big lead with his two pair. The J♥ river, however, saw Yokosawa hit one of his two outs to make a better hand.
Yokosawa's set was awarded the pot, and Hendrix was the first player to depart from the final three tables.
