Curt Kohlberg

After an early position raise, Vitor Rangel three-bet to 85,000 in middle position. Curt Kohlberg then moved all in for 335,000 in late position and it folded back around to Rangel. He called and had Kohlberg at risk.

Rangel: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}

Kohlberg was in bad shape against Rangel's aces and the {A-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} sealed it. Kohlberg was eliminated, receiving $13,186 for his 26th-place finish.

Charalampos Lappas
Charalampos Lappas

Charalampos Lappas moved all in for 188,000 and Scott Margereson moved all in over the top out of the small blind. John Dolan in the big blind peeked at his cards and quickly called for fewer chips than Margereson.

Lappas: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}
Dolan: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Margereson: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

The board ran out {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Lappas was eliminated in 25th place for $13,186, while Dolan almost tripled up after doubling through Margereson for 262,000 total.

Federico Butteroni Eliminated in 24th Place ($13,186)

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Federico Butteroni
Federico Butteroni

Chi Zhang had started rather mediocre and quickly lost half of his stack, but the Brit bounced back and just sent Federico Butteroni to the rail. The former November Niner three-bet shoved out of the small blind and Zhang quickly called.

Butteroni: {A-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Zhang: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and Butteroni was in desperate shape. He picked up some chop outs on the {J-Clubs} turn, but the {6-Hearts} river was a blank. Michael Krasienko said "That was a good window card," to Zhang, referring to the queen that appeared first.

Butteroni was eliminated in 24th place and takes home $13,186 for his efforts.

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Pedro Cabeca
Pedro Cabeca

First to act, Pedro Cabeca moved all in for his last 44,000 and Eric Cloutier called. [Removed:153] also came along from the big blind and checked the {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop. Cloutier bet 80,000, and Stenholm called before the two remaining players checked the {Q-Clubs} turn and {J-Diamonds} river.

Cloutier rolled over {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for kings and queens and Cabeca mucked {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}. Stenholm could beat neither and also sent his {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for a busted flush draw into the muck. Cabeca was eliminated in 23rd place and takes home $13,186.

John Dolan
John Dolan

With the board reading {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and over 100,000 in the pot, John Dolan checked in the big blind and [Removed:153] bet 75,000 in middle position. Dolan check-shoved for just under 300,000 total and Stenholm called.

Dolan: {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Stenholm: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

Both players had a pair of kings but Stenholm's ace kicker was best. The {6-Spades} turn and the {10-Spades} river couldn't save Dolan and he was eliminated in 22nd place for a payout of $13,186.

Pablo Fernandez
Pablo Fernandez

After a raise to 42,000 by Sadan Turker, Pablo Fernandez moved all in for around 20 big blinds from one seat over. Turker didn't ask for a count, but instead quickly called to put Fernandez at risk.

Fernandez: {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Turker: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}

Fernandez had escaped from elimination several times prior to this, but the fortune of the Spaniard ran out this time. The board came {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and the kicker played to send Fernandez to the rail in 19th place for $13,186. The remaining 18 players will redraw to the last two tables momentarily.
