Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Jared Ditmarson opened to 200,000 in the cutoff and action folded to Mike Estes, who re-jammed in the big blind. Ditmarson went into the tank and then found a call after some time.

Jared Ditmarson:
Mike Estes:

"You're ahead," said a tablemate upon seeing the cards tabled.

"I'd like to use my one time," Ditmarson said with a smile. The flop brought potential counterfeit outs, and running gave Estes the better two pair as Ditmarson was left playing the board.

Stacks were counted to be 1.045 million for Estes and 1.040 million for Ditmarson, resulting in his entire stack going in the direction of Estes as he finished in 10th place. The finish was Ditmarson's second inside the final two tables at MSPT Riverside after he took 18th place in the last $1,100 Main Event here some four months ago.
