Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Darnell Echols
Darnell Echols

Action on the table folded around to Darnell Echols who raised all in for roughly 100,000 from the button and Rory Linton isolated from the small blind.

Darnell Echols: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Rory Linton: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Echols was dominated and needed a king but the {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop paired Linton's ace.

The {k-Hearts} turn kept Echols' tournament hopes alive but the {8-Clubs} completed the board on the river and ended his tournament.
