Ema Zajmovic Eliminated in 11th Place ($16,000)

Level 28 : 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante
Ema Zajmovic
Ema Zajmovic

Ema Zajmovic limped in from the small blind and Kevin Rivest moved all-in from the big blind. Zajmovic snap-called.

Zajmovic was at risk with {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, flipping against Rivest's {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

The flop came {k-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Zajmovic paired her king, but Rivest also flopped a set. The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and Zajmovic was drawing to the {8-Spades} on the river to give Rivest quads.

The first female to win a World Poker Tour title has hit the rail in 11th place, taking home $16,000 for her deep run today.

Time For a Break

Level 27 : 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

The first two levels of the day are in the books with 11 players remaining. Play will resume in 15-minutes.

Johanssy Joseph Eliminated in 12th place ($16,000)

Level 27 : 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Johanssy Joseph
Johanssy Joseph

After doubling up Ema Zajmovic just a couple hands before, Johanssy Joseph tangled with chip leader Sebastien Labbe in a big pot.

With a {2-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades} board in front of them, Labbe bet 5.4 million and then called a raise to 13 million from Joseph.

The {3-Hearts} fell on the river and Labbe moved all in, sending Joseph into the tank. A call would be for his tournament life. A few moments went by and eventually, Joseph slammed down a stack of chips, making the call.

Labbe turned over {a-Spades}{4-Clubs} for a straight and Joseph was forced to muck his {2-Spades}{2-Hearts} for a set, busting in 12th place.

Level 27 : 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Shawn Daigle
Shawn Daigle

Action folded to Shawn Daigle in the hijack and he moved all-in for 19,000. Chip leader Sebastien Labbe was in the small blind and tossed in a single chip to call, prompting the big blind to get out of the way.

Daigle tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, flipping against Labbe's {k-Spades}{10-Spades}.

The flop came {k-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Labbe slid into the lead with two pair kings and threes. The turn was the {5-Diamonds} and the river was the {10-Diamonds} to send Daigle to the rail and add more chips to Labbe's monstrous stack.
