Kevin Hammer moved all in for 149,000 under the gun and Steven Buckner called in the cutoff.
Kevin Hammer: A♣3♣
Steven Buckner: A♥9♠
The 9♣2♠9♥ flop was a disaster for Hammer, as Buckner hit trips. Hammer was left drawing dead after the 10♠ turn, while the river was the 2♦ to seal his elimination.
The remaining 18 players are drawing for seats at the final two tables.
Heads-up on a flop of 4♣9♣5♠, Art Peacock bet 40,000 from the button and Min Zhang called in the big blind.
Both players checked the Q♠ turn. Zhang then led out for 50,000 on the K♥ river, but Peacock came back with an all-in shove.
Zhang had around 250,000 remaining and took a minute before folding.
Level: 18
Blinds: 8,000/16,000
Ante: 16,000
Aaron Schwartz raised to 25,000 in the hijack and Corey Paggeot called in the big blind.
Schwartz continued for 32,000 on the 8♥4♥9♦ flop, and Paggeot called. Paggeot then led out for 20,000 on the 7♦ turn, and Schwartz called.
Paggeot bet another 40,000 on the 8♦ river, and Schwartz quickly gave up his hand this time.
Charles Mitchell moved all in for 88,000 under the gun and Walter Vanschaik called for 62,000 on the button, while the rest of the table got out of the way.
Walter Vanschaik: A♣10♦
Charles Mitchell: K♠J♦
The 4♦3♦2♣2♥Q♠ board improved neither player, and Vanschaik took the pot with his ace to earn the double up.
At the same time at another table, Kevin Hammer was all in for 124,000 from the hijack and up against Charlemagne Benjamin in the big blind.
Kevin Hammer: A♥3♥
Charlemagne Benjamin: K♣Q♦
The board ran out 7♣4♦4♥6♠4♠, and Hammer also took the pot with ace-high to double up and leave Benjamin with less than a big blind.
Sergio Giha raised to 25,000 in the hijack before Ardit Kurshumi three-bet to 110,000 in the big blind. Giha then moved all in for 671,000.
Kurshumi took several minutes before giving up his hand. "You like to gamble, huh?" Kurshumi said to Giha.
Corey Paggeot moved all in for 192,000 from the big blind and Fred Bunchan put him at risk on the button.
Corey Paggeot: 10♦10♣
Fred Bunchan: A♦K♣
Paggeot was racing for his tournament life, and the 3♥5♦5♥9♣4♦ board kept his tens in the lead to earn him the double up.
