David Mirth Eliminated in 15th Place ($5,830)
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Shane Pierce raised to 70,000 in the cutoff and in the big blind, David Mirth called.
On the 8♥2♥K♣ flop, Mirth checked over to Pierce who bet 55,000. Mirth responded by raising to 180,000 and Pierce called.
The turn peeled off a 6♥ where Mirth bet 350,000 which Pierce called.
Mirth moved all in for 1,200,000 on the 9♣ river which Pierce quickly called.
David Mirth: 9♥3♥
Shane Pierce: A♥10♥
Both players had rivered a flush, with Pierce holding the nut flush which was good for him to take down the pot and a massive chip lead, while Mirth exited the tournament.
