Gregory Goater Eliminated in 11th Place ($4,103)

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Gregory Goater
Gregory Goater

Gregory Goater open-shoved a stack of around 300,000 and John Compton re-shoved from the small blind to get the hand heads-up.

Gregory Goater: {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}
John Compton: {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

It was a coin flip before the flop came {q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{k-Hearts} to give Goater a big lead with a pair of kings, and the runout of {4-Hearts}{8-Hearts} didn't change anything for Goater to go out in 11th place for $4,103.

Bryan Brockmeier Eliminated in 12th Place ($4,103)

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Bryan Brockmeier
Bryan Brockmeier

Bryan Brockmeier was all-in for around 300,000 in a heads-up pot against Day 1a chip leader Brian Dumaplin.

Bryan Brockmeier: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Brian Dumaplin: {k-Spades}{8-Clubs}

It looked like a double for Brockmeier after the {q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Diamonds} flop and {9-Clubs} turn, but the {8-Diamonds} on the river gave Dumaplin a pair of eights to send Brockmeier out in 12th place for $4,103.

"Got me on the river," Brockmeier said quietly as he left.

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Phillip Krnyaich
Phillip Krnyaich

Phillip Krnyaich open-jammed a stack of 250,000 from under the gun and Edward Mroczkowski called from the big blind.

Phillip Krnyaich: {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Edward Mroczkowski: {9-}{9-}

A flop of {10-}{10-}{8-} kept Mroczkowski's nines ahead, and a {9-} on the turn gave him a full house and a lock on the hand headed to the meaningless {k-} river to send Krnyaich out in 13th for $3,318.

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Eric Jarvis
Eric Jarvis

Eric Jarvis lost most of his stack in a hand where he moved in with a flopped pair of fours and got called by the pocket queens of Forsberg, who held up after the turn and river.

Later, Mac Johnson opened in early position and Eric Jarvis three-bet shoved his remaining 165,000. Johnson called when the action folded back around.

Eric Jarvis: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Mac Johnson: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}

Jarvis received no help from the runout of {6-Spades}{10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and he was sent home in 15th place for $2,716.

Alexander Monroe: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}
Timothy Forsberg: {9-Spades}{8-Spades}

Ace-Queen Sinks, Then Saves Darnell

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Steve Zhang moved all-in from early position and got a call from Mary Darnell in the small blind, who had him covered by about 150,000.

Steve Zhang: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Mary Darnell: {a-Spades}{q-}

Darnell needed an ace it didn't come on the runout of {8-Spades}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for Zhang's kings to hold for a big double-up.

Darnell was left short but won some of it back shortly after when she moved in preflop and got a call from Zhang.

Mary Darnell: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Steve Zhang: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Darnell had the same hand that doomed her and it looked like she'd be going home when the {7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop and {8-Clubs} turn didn't help her, but she let out a gasp of joy when the {q-Hearts} appeared on the river to keep her alive.

"God is good!" Darnell shouted.

Brockmeier Shows a Semi-Bluff

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Bryan Brockmeier was out of position in a heads-up pot against Gregory Salem and check-called a bet on the flop of {q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Brockmeier then led out for 100,000 on the {5-Diamonds} turn and Salem told him "good bet" before folding a ten face-up. Brockmeier showed {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for king-high with a gutshot straight draw and took down the pot.
