Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Edgar Kelley
Edgar Kelley

Elliott Hebden raised to 120,000 in the hijack and Edgar Kelley defended his big blind.

The flop came {5-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Kelley moved all in for his remaining 430,000. Hebden said, "If you got the jack you're good." Before he called.

Edgar Kelley: {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Elliott Hebden: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Kelley was in need of some help but couldn't find it as the {k-Spades} turn and {q-Spades} river completed the board.

Miller Spikes Ace to Set Up Brown's Elimination

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Justin Brown
Justin Brown

Justin Brown raised 150,000 in middle position and Bryant Miller moved all in for 755,000 from the big blind. Brown snap called.

Bryant Miller: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Justin Brown: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Miller got exactly the flop he was looking for as it came {7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. That left Brown with one out that he was unable to hit on the {5-Clubs} turn or the {6-Diamonds} river.

Brown was down to just 100,000 after the hand and was recently seen walking to the payout desk.

Kapoor Flushed in Biggest Pot of the Tournament

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jason Kapoor
Jason Kapoor

With approximately 600,000 in the pot and a flop of {2-Spades}{6-Spades}{8-Spades}, action exploded between Jason Kapoor and Elliott Hebden that resulted in the former getting his remaining 1.6 million in the middle.

Jason Kapoor: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Elliott Hebden: {a-Spades}{7-Hearts}

Kapoor had flopped top set while Hebden played his nut-flush draw to the max. The {k-Clubs} turn was of no consequence but the {5-Spades} river was as Hebden found a spade to make his flush and send a stunned Kapoor to the rail in 19th place.

Michael Bennett Eliminated in 18th place ($14,398)

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Michael Bennett
Michael Bennett

Michael Bennett was in the small blind and moved all in for his last 350,000. Aaron Massey was in the big blind and called.

Michael Bennett: {j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Aaron Massey: {q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

Bennett took the lead on the {3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop, but still had to dodge many outs. The {8-Diamonds} turn card improved Massey's gut shot straight draw into an open ended straight draw, which he nailed on the {9-Clubs} river. Bennett was eliminated in 18th.
