Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Dave Olshan shoved for 250,000 from under the gun and Buck Ramsay flatted from two spots over. The rest of the table folded and Olshan was in bad shape.

Olshan: {K-}{Q-}
Ramsay: {A-Clubs}{Q-}

Ramsay's ace held up as the best hand and Olshan picked up $2,801 for his second 12th-place finish of the 2014 Summer Slam series.

Blake Napierala Eliminated in 14th Place ($2,801)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Action folded to Buck Ramsay in the small blind and he moved all in, putting Blake Napierala to a decision for his 270,000 chips in the big blind. Napierala slowly peeked at his cards and called.

Ramsay: {J-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Napierala: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}

Napierala was safe through the {2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop but the {4-Spades} drilled the turn to give Ramsay a pair. Napierala picked up a flush draw in addition to his overcards but he whiffed on the {3-Clubs} river. Blake wished his tablemates good luck before leaving the tournament area.

Kevin Rickner Eliminated in 16th Place ($2,135)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Two big stacks just went to battle and created a pot worth 1.3 million. Vince Palma is now the overwhelming chip leader.

With the board showing {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, Rickner moved all in for more than 500,000. Palma called and showed the {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for a rivered two pair and Rickner mucked. After the stacks were counted down it was revealed that Palma had Rickner outchipped and Rickner headed to the cashier.
