Neil Patel Eliminated in 11th Place ($15,024)

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

On what would be the final hand of the evening, Paul Bianchi opened it up to 35,000 from under the gun.

At the same time, there was a misunderstanding over change between Bianchi and another player, Bianchi having broken a larger chip and accidentally been shorted 5,000. The cards must go on, though, and Neil Patel ripped in 117,000 next to act. Action folded back to Bianchi.

The player threw Bianchi the 5k he was owed, at which point Patel said, "Great. You gave him more ammo."

Bianchi, rightful ammunition in hand, saw the jam and asked, "How much is that?" but nonetheless, he instantly called.

Neil Patel: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Paul Bianchi: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

The {2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{a-Clubs} flop brought no assistance for at-risk Patel, but the {a-Hearts} gave chop outs. When the {4-Clubs} landed on the river, the two players shook hands, and play concluded for the night.
