Frank Brannan Eliminated in 14th Place ($107,029)
Level 24
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Bryn Kenney limped in from under the gun and Frank Brannan raised to 450,000 in the cutoff. Ben Lamb flat-called on the button and Kenney came along as well. The flop fell 9♠8♣6♣ and the action checked to Lamb who bet 1,600,000. Kenney quickly folded but Brannan used a couple of time banks before calling off his stack of roughly 700,000.
Frank Brannan: A♥A♣8♦5♥
Ben Lamb: K♥Q♦J♣9♦
Brannan was ahead with his pocket aces but Lamb flopped a pair and had plenty of two pair options. The 5♠ on the turn was a brick but the J♦ on the river gave Lamb two pair to eliminate Brannan just before the break.
