Alexander Gittings Eliminated in 19th Place ($8,984)
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Short-stacked, Alexander Gittings moved his last 150,000 into the middle, just under the big blind. Sean Cronin called from the small blind, and Enrique Baldeon checked his option in the big.
The three saw a runout of 2♥5♥K♥7♣10♥, and with no action on any street, it went straight to showdown.
Gittings revealed A♣5♠ for a pair of fives, Cronin showed J♠9♣ for jack high, but Baldeon tabled 9♥6♦ for a rivered flush to win the pot and send Gittings to the rail.
