Kent Vanho Eliminated in 15th Place ($26,049)

Kent Vanho - 15th place
Kent Vanho - 15th place

Kent Vanho shoved the very next hand and fellow (relative) short stack Alexander Queen reshoved. Everyone else got out of their way, and they were on their backs.

Vanho: {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Queen: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Board: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Spades}

Vanho had already been standing to leave on the flop, but promptly sat back down. "What happened?" he said to Queen, laughing with relief, "You trying to donate to me or what?"

Vanho doubled to 150,000 or so while Queen was left with 280,000.

However, it couldn't last. A hand or two later and Vanho shoved under the gun, getting a call from William Kakon in mid position.

Vanho: {q-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Kakon: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Board: {3-Clubs}{5-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Spades}

With that, we were 14.
