Down to 14 Players as Zhao and Nevanlinna Bust

A raising war over on table four saw a squeeze to 55,000 by Joseph Kushner before table neighbor Hongjun Zhao then moved all in for little more, 67,900 in total. Kushner called and the cards were tabled.

Hongjun Zhao: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Joseph Kushner: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}

The board ran out {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{Q-Spades} and that was it for Zhao.

At the very same time over on table two, Jussi Nevanlinna tried to get through with a move and shoved the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Spades}{5-Clubs} river. Sam Greenwood called and Nevanlinna instantly mucked his cards.

Greenwood tabled his {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts} out of the blinds, while the cards of Nevanlinna were still in reach, though, and the dealer turned over his {J-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} for a pair of jacks only. Greenwood boosted his stack further and has a commanding lead with 14 players remaining.
