Olivier Brodeur Eliminated in 23rd Place ($12,738)
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Olivier Brodeur made it 140,000 from middle position with just a few chips behind. Michael Monroig three-bet to around 500,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Brodeur, he called.
Olivier Brodeur: A♥Q♦9♥9♣ 
Michael Monroig: A♠A♦K♣8♥
Brodeur needed to beat Monroig's aces to survive. The 6♥8♦3♠ flop didn't change anything, and the K♠ on the turn meant Brodeur needed a nine on the river to survive. The J♦ fell on the river and Brodeur headed to the cashier's desk to collect his payout for coming 23rd.
