Robert Marsh Eliminated in 8th Place ($4,106)

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Robert Marsh

Action folded around to Joseph Grusel who moved all in, Robert Marsh woke up with a monster and instantly called for just a little bit less.

Marsh turned over his two queens and was well ahead of the ace-seven of Grusel until the flop came down with two aces, giving Grusel the lead with three of a kind. The board ran out dry as Grusel pulled in the pot, eliminating Marsh from the tournament.

Venkat Kumar Nagarajan Eliminated in 9th Place ($2,831)

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Venkat Kumar Nagarajan

Venkat Kumar Nagarajan opened from the button and Efthymia Litsou shoved all in for more than enough to cover Nagarajan who hit the tank. After a moment of thought, Nagarajan called for his 550,000 stack and the two turned over their cards.

Venkat Kumar Nagarajan: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Efthymia Litsou: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

The flop rolled out {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Nagarajan found the ace he was looking for but unfortunately for him, Litsou spiked a set of dimes. An {8-Diamonds} peeled off on the turn and Nagarajan was now drawing dead to the {3-Spades} river card as he was eliminated.
