John Schroer Eliminated in 10th Place ($7,340)

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
John Schroer
John Schroer

Gerald Cunniff raised to 120,000 on the button and was called by John Schroer in the big blind.

On the {5-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop, Schroer check-raised Cunniff's continuation bet of 150,000 to 500,000.

Cunniff then moved all in for a little under 1,000,000 total.

After a couple of minutes of deliberation, Schroer called, slightly covered by Cunniff.

John Schroer: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Gerald Cunniff: {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

Cunniff's two pair led Schroer's top pair, top kicker, then held up as the dealer placed the {9-Clubs} on the turn and the {8-Diamonds} on the river.

With Schroer's elimination, the final table of nine has been reached and the players have been sent on a 45-minute dinner break.

Michael Williams Wins Huge Flip Over Mireles

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Michael Williams
Michael Williams

"I don't wanna be the bubble!"

These were the words spoken by Michael Williams as he hesitantly called off his over 1,000,000 chip stack to a preflop three-bet jam from Sergio Mireles.

Williams had raised to 100,000 from the button before being put to the huge decision by Mireles, who hasn't show aversion to playing big pots today.

This would be his biggest, as Williams indeed called.

Michael Williams: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Sergio Mireles: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The massive flip was decided quickly as the dealer gave Williams a set with the {q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop, then a {3-Spades} on the turn to seal it before the irrelevant {9-Diamonds} on the river.

Mireles' stack tumbled to one of the shorter in the room, while Williams is now near the chip lead.

Joshua Reichard Eliminated in 11th Place ($7,340)

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Joshua Reichard
Joshua Reichard

With approximately 400,000 in the pot on a board reading {q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}, Sergio Mireles overbet jammed for 695,000 effective to potentially put Joshua Reichard all-in.

Reichard tanked for a couple of minutes then called, only to see the bad news.

Joshua Reichard: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Sergio Mireles: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Reichard's call with a pair of tens couldn't beat Mireles' flopped top pair of queens.

Reichard was sent to the rail, while Mireles' stack is now back near the biggest in the room.

Jeff Heiberg Eliminated in 12th Place ($7,340)

Level 23 : 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jeff Heiberg
Jeff Heiberg

Jeff Heiberg raised to 85,000 from under the gun, then call a three-bet to 260,000 from Alex Smith on the button.

On the {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop, Heiberg checked, Smith moved all in for about 300,000 more, and Smith called.

Jeff Heiberg: {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Alex Smith: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

Smith's queens needed to fade Heiberg's flush draw and did just that as the dealer laid out the {6-Clubs} on the turn and the {9-Hearts} on the river.

Smith is now the first player over 2,000,000 chips, and he's well over at that, with a sizeable chip lead.

Smith Scores Huge Pot From Mireles

Level 23 : 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alex Smith
Alex Smith

Alex Smith raised to 80,000 in the cutoff and was called by Sergio Mireles on the button and Jeff Heiberg in the big blind.

On the {5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop, after Heiberg checked, Smith continued for 105,000. Mireles then raised to 450,000 and Heiberg folded.

With action back on him, Smith moved all in for 700,000 total, and despite a potential call only costing him 250,000 more in the huge pot, Mireles opted to fold.

Smith showed the table {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} as he dragged the huge pot.
