Thomas Boivin Eliminated in 25th Place ($75,522)
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Thomas Boivin, a former MSPT Venetian champ, raised to 80,000 from early position only to have Joseph Zona three-bet all in for 600,000 out of the big blind. Boivin pondered for a bit before spiking in a call from his near-equal stack.
Joseph Zona: 
Thomas Boivin: 
It was a flip and Zona stayed in the lead on the 
flop, which also gave him a flush draw. The 
turn gave Zona a set but also Boivin a straight draw. The dealer burned one last time and put out the 
, which gave Zona the double.
Boivin was left with 30,000 but went bust the very next hand.... which wasn't such a great hand for Zona.
