Shiraz Hasan Eliminated in 5th Place ($17,751)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Shiraz Hasan
Shiraz Hasan

Shiraz Hasan got his last 557,000 all in preflop and was flipping for his tournament life against Jeff Trudeau, who had a stack of 677,000.

Shiraz Hasan: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Jeff Trudeau: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}

The {9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop was a disaster for Hasan as Trudeau flopped a full boat. The {2-Hearts} turn left him drawing dead and he headed for the exit after the meaningless {5-Hearts} was run out on the river.

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Scott Efron
Scott Efron

Kevin Javier raised under the gun and Scott Efron three-bet all in for around 475,000 next to act. Action folded back to Javier and he snap-called.

Kevin Javier: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Scott Efron: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

Javier had the better ace and the kicker made all the difference after the board ran out {3-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}.

Kemeter Shows the Goods

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Michael Kemeter raised to 50,000 under the gun and Chris O'Neil called out of the small blind. Shiraz Hasan folded from the big and it was heads-up action to the {2-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{a-Spades} flop.

O'Neil checked and then wasted little time in folding to Kemeter's 60,000 bet.

"I'll show it," Kemeter said before showing his {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} for top set.

Level 21 : 8,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Christian Harder
Christian Harder

Christian Harder just hit the rail after his pocket aces were cracked by Michael Kemeter.

Some of the detail escaped us but we do know Harder bet a {q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop and Kemeter called. On the {6-Diamonds} turn, Kemeter checked and Harder bet again. Kemeter check-raised all in and Harder called off.

Michael Kemeter: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Christian Harder: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Kemeter was ahead with his set and held on the {3-Hearts} river.

Olivier Busquet Eliminated in 8th Place ($7,100)

Level 21 : 8,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Olivier Busquet
Olivier Busquet

Christian Harder open-jammed from the small blind and Olivier Busquet called off from the big blind.

Harder: {q-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Busquet: {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}

Busquet got it in good but fell way behind on the {j-Clubs}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop. The {10-Diamonds} turn left Busquet looking for a king on the river but it wasn't in the cards as the {j-Spades} improved Harder to a full boat.
