Birthday boy and start of day chipleader Nick Maimone has been eliminated from the 2017 PokerStars Championship Bahamas $5,000 Main Event.

Maimone opened under the gun for 60,000 and his neighbor Michael Vela called. Over on the button sat Michael Gentili and he three-bet to 195,000. Both blinds folded and action was back on Maimone who pushed all in for just over 700,000. Vela folded right away, Gentili called instantly.

Michael Gentili: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Nick Maimone: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

"Good hand, it [was] gonna play itself" Maimone said.

The board ran out {3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} and Maimone said his goodbyes. Down to 18 players now, still all guaranteed $24,640.
