Taylor Tollefson Eliminated in 14th Place ($3,972)

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Taylor Tollefson managed to work his stack up to 77,000 after being crippled by TJ Chen, but he just lost it all in the last hand of Level 22.

It happened when he shoved from early position and Nick Perkins called him from the big blind.

Tollefson: {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Perkins: {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}

Tollefson only had one over, so his best shot at survival was to catch an ace. The {10-Spades}{j-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop was no help, but the {3-Hearts} turn did give him a wheel draw. Unfortunately for the MSPT regular, the {5-Spades} river was a blank and he was bounced in 14th place for $3,972.

That marks Tollefson's eighth MSPT cash, which ties him for third all time alongside MSPT Pro Matt Kirby.
