"Meinhard1988" Finds the Rail, "Musclewhale89" Follows: Hand-for-Hand Begins

"Meinhard1988"

In Level 20 with blinds of 6,000/12,000 and an ante of 1,500, "Barrettwins" saw action fold around to the cutoff and raised to 24,000. "Meinhard1988" three-bet shoved for 68,000 on the button and "Barrettwins" made the call once it became their turn to do so.

"Barrettwins": {a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
"Meinhard1988": {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

"Barrettwins" was out in front and remained there as the flop dropped {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}, giving them top pair. The turn {10-Clubs} gave "Meinhard1988" four outs at a backdoor gutshot to Broadway, but they missed the jack they needed to completed the draw as the river came {8-Hearts} to result in their elimination from the tournament in 12th place.

Moments later, "Musclewhale89's" night came to an end in 11th place, and 10 players now remain. Hand-for-hand play is in effect across the two remaining tables until one elimination occurs, at which time the remaining nine players will have made the final table.
