Kevin O'Brien Eliminated in 21st Place ($16,644)
Chip leader Chris Gonzales opened to 40,000 from the button, and in the small blind Kevin O'Brien re-popped for 105,000. Gonzales tanked for a while before four-betting; O'Brien's chips went in, Gonzales agreed to make the call, and they were on their backs.

O'Brien received no assistance from the deck and hit the rail. At least he can now go to the friend's wedding he though he would have to miss - he and fiancee Lana Maier were meant to be on a flight at 2.30pm.
Gonzales extended his lead to around 1.9 million.
