Frank Panetta Eliminated in 9th Place ($2,542)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Frank Panetta - 9th Place
Frank Panetta - 9th Place

Frank Panetta opened for a raise from under the gun, and the action folded all the way to John Johnston on the button. He moved all in, and before the two players in the blinds could fold, Panetta started to commit the rest of his stack. The dealer used his left arm to stop Panetta, who was sitting in the one seat, and once both players folded, he quickly called all-in.

Johnston ripped over {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}, and Panetta studied the hand for a few moments before showing {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

The {9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{k-Clubs} flop changed very little, and Panetta was drawing dead when the {k-Hearts} fell on the turn. A meaningless {10-Hearts} completed the board, and Panetta hit the rail in ninth place.

Adir Davidov Eliminated in 10th Place ($1,652)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Adir Davidov - 10th Place
Adir Davidov - 10th Place

Adir Davidov open-shoved for around 600,000 from the hijack seat, Nick "Panini" Curanovic re-shoved on his direct left, and the rest of the players folded.

Davidov: {a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Curanovic: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

The flop came {7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, giving Davidov a wheel draw, but he lost three outs on the turn ({j-Spades}).

There were only four cards in the deck that could save Davidov on the river, and unfortunately for him the {6-Hearts} on the turn wasn't one of them. He hit the rail in 10th place, while Curanovic chipped up to 1.5 million.

Coan Doubles

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Thomas Coan was all in for 520,000 on a flop of {j-Spades}{6-Hearts}{q-Hearts} with {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. He was well ahead of the {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} of Steve Raimie, but the {a-Hearts} on the turn gave him a plethora of outs.

Any {10-} or {x-Hearts} (except for the {j-Hearts}) would give Raime a straight or flush respectively, but the {3-Spades} bricked off on the river.

"Never easy," Coan chuckled, raking in the pot.

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Andrew Klein - 11th Place
Andrew Klein - 11th Place

Andrew Klein was racing for his tournament life with two over cards - {a-Spades}{q-Hearts} - against Steve Raimie's wired pair of {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}.

Klein failed to improve on the flop ({10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}), turn ({10-Diamonds}), or the river ({7-Clubs}), and was eliminated in 11th place.

The remaining 10 players are now forming the final table, and we will bring you a redraw shortly.

Huge Double for Weinfeld

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Martin Weinfeld raised to 150,000 in the cutoff, Steve Raimie called in the small blind, and the dealer fanned {4-Spades}{j-Clubs}{k-Clubs}.

That's when the fireworks began.

Raimie checked, Weinfeld continued for 175,000, Raimie put in a check-raise, and Weinfeld moved all in for 520,000. Raimie instantly called.

Raimie: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Weinfeld: {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

Weinfeld was ahead with bottom set against Raimie's top two, and Raime failed to fill up on the turn ({5-Spades}) and the river ({6-Clubs}).
