Romain Lewis Eliminated in 16th Place ($34,881)

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Romain Lewis
Romain Lewis

Romain Lewis opened to 60,000 from middle position and Max Lehmanski three-bet to 150,000 in the hijack. Action folded back to Lewis who jammed in his stack of about 700,000, and Lehmanski called.

Romain Lewis: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Max Lehmanski : {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The players were flipping and Lewis was in good shape as he made a set on the {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop. Lehmanski was looking for a queen for Broadway, and that's exactly what came on the {q-Diamonds} turn.

With Lewis needing to pair the board to stay alive, the {4-Diamonds} came on the river, and the French Winamax Team Pro was sent to the rail in 16th place.

Just before the blinds went up and on a {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop, Pavel Plesuv check-called a 65,000 bet in the hijack against Boris Kolev in the cutoff.

The {k-Clubs} came on the turn and Plesuv check-jammed after Kolev bet 175,000. Kolev quickly put in a chip to signify the call and hands were revealed.

Pavel Plesuv: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Boris Kolev: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Both players smashed the flop, as Kolev made the nut straight and Plesuv flopped the top set, but Plesuv needed to pair the board to stay alive.

Kolev got away from it after several minutes and Frank took a big pot to keep pace with the top of the leaderboard.

Z Stein: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Shannon Shorr: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

The {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop put Stein even further ahead, and he had it locked up on the {7-Hearts} turn. The {3-Hearts} completed the board as a formality and Stein's double was confirmed.
