Joseph Rudy Eliminated in 7th Place ($21,058)

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Joseph Rudy
Joseph Rudy

Joseph Rudy opened to 125,000 from under the gun, David Plotkin moved all in for 825,000 in the hijack and Rudy called all in for his 770,000 stack.

Joseph Rudy: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
David Plotkin: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The flop rolled out {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Spades} and Rudy was still in the lead with his big slick. A {9-Hearts} landed on the felt, changing nothing as Plotkin needed a jack to take down the pot. The rivered came down just that as the dealer flipped over a {j-Hearts}, shifting the lead to Plotkin who took down the pot, eliminating Rudy from the tournament on an unlikely river.

Ralph Macri Eliminated in 8th Place ($16,449)

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Ralph Macri
Ralph Macri

Ralph Macri moved all in for 580,000 from the cutoff and action folded to Maurice Hawkins in the big blind who snap-called, players turned over their hands with Macri at risk.

Ralph Macri: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Maurice Hawkins: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

"Jack-ball, jack-ball," said Hawkins as the dealer burned a card. The flop rolled out {j-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, giving Hawkins the jack he was calling for and the lead. A {6-Diamonds} peeled on the turn and Macri had one last chance for romance. The {k-Spades} river failed to improve Macri as he was sent out in eighth place by Hawkins.

Macri Flops Two Against the Aces of Ostapchenko

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Andrew Ostapchenko opened to 100,000 from the cutoff, Ralph Macri three-bet to 300,000 on the button and Ostapchenko snap-shoved all in for 675,000. Macri called and the two tabled their hands.

Andrew Ostapchenko: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Ralph Macri: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The dealer fanned out {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, giving Macri the lead with his two pair. A {k-Clubs} landed on the turn and Ostapchenko now picked up a nudle of outs. The river was one of them as a {7-Clubs} peeled off, shifting the lead to Ostapchenko and his rivered flush. Ostapchenko survived elimination again on the river and again Macri is the table short-stack.
