Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

On a 873 board Christopher Alcindor bet and called a shove from Sang Shin.

Sang Shin: A6422 All in
Christopher Alcindor: AAQJ4

The turn was the 2 and the river the 5 giving both players the nut low. Alcindor initially thought he'd won the high as well, but Shin held a six for an eight-high straight to take three quarters.

Mark Gregorich Eliminated in 14th Place ($20,940)

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Mark Gregorich
Mark Gregorich

Song Wang opened to 250,000 in the cutoff and Mark Gregorich came along from the small blind.

On the K92 flop, Gregorich checked to Wang who bet 300,000. Gregorich check-potted, and he ended up getting his roughly 2,000,000 remaining stack into the middle, at risk against Wang.

Mark Gregorich: A10622 All in
Song Wang: KK877

It was an unfortunate set-under-set situation for Gregorich, who had some backdoor equity with the better low potential and backdoor hearts.

The J turn brought a sweat, but the river was the A, ending Gregorich's run in 14th place.

River Saves Ramirez

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

On a AJ4Q board, with over 1.3 million chips in the pot, Senovio Ramirez bet 900,000 and Christopher Alcindor raised all in for 2,460,000.

He covered Ramirez by around 700,000 and Ramirez eventually called.

Christopher Alcindor: AKJ83 All in
Senovio Ramirez: KK1062

Ramirez had turned the nut straight, with Alcindor drawing to the nut low and flush. The river 2 secured him half the pot, and they chopped it up.

Stanislav Halatenko Eliminated in 15th Place ($20,940)

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Stanislav Halatenko
Stanislav Halatenko

Stanislav Halatenko potted to 350,000 second-to-act. In the big blind, Thomas Koral repotted to 1,100,000, Halatenko was all-in for 1,325,000, and Koral called.

Stanislav Halatenko: AQQ43 All in
Thomas Koral: AAJ98

The Q74 flop gave Halatenko top set as well as the superior low draw. The 3 came on the turn, giving Halatenko another unwanted pair as Koral held the only qualifying low.

In brutal fashion, the A fell on the river, giving Koral top set and live eight. It was the only scoop card in the entire deck, and Halatenko hit the exit after a gross bad beat.

Furth Falls

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Bruno Furth was all-in for 130,000 from the button, Stanislav Halatenko called in the small blind, and Volodymyr Kondratenko came along from the big blind.

The 542 flop checked through to the K turn which saw Halatenko check-fold to a 250,000 bet from Kondratenko.

Bruno Furth: AAK42 All in
Volodymyr Kondratenko: 108763

Kondratenko had a straight with a six low, against Furth's aces. The river was the A, and Furth's top set was no good as he got scooped, as the two-time Omaha bracelet winner hits the rail.

The tournament has now been reduced to its final two tables.

Rice Doubles Through Furth

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Shawn Rice was all in for 1,840,000, covering his opponent Bruno Furth by just 10,000 chips.

Shawn Rice: A10944 All in
Bruno Furth: A8322

The board came Q946K with trip fours enough for Rice to double up. Furth would double the very next hand but would remain short.

Meanwhile, at another table, Kevin Kendrick was sent to the rail by Senovio Ramirez.
