Bownds Busts Kempson
Both Corey Kempson and Robert Damelian have re-entered, but in the former's case it was not for that long with Kempson departing towards the close of the level.
Kempson had lost close to half of his 25k starting stack before the hand in question, dropping some in a three-way pot against Luke Edwards and another player, with Edwards (early position) taking down the ~10,000 pot on the river on a board of 
with a bet of 4,200, folding out both Kempson (big blind) and the player on the button.
An orbit or so later and Kempson was out for the second time in as many levels. It was Ryan Bownd's the man wielding the executioner's axe with an early position open to 3,200. Kempson called from the button and after small blind James Obst folded, big blind Luke Edwards made the call to take the action three-way to a flop of 
.
Following checks from Edwards and pre-flop raiser Bownds, Kempson moved all-in for a little over 11,000. Edwards folded quickly, but Bownds was going nowhere, tanking for a few seconds before electing to call.

Corey Kempson: 
While Kempson was drawing live, the 
turn left him needing to hit one of the decks four remaining tens, but the 
river was of no help and he headed for the rail once more, while Bownds stacked up to 105,000.
