Tom Pniak Eliminated in 21st Place ($92,820)

Tom Pniak - 21st place
Tom Pniak - 21st place
Tom Pniak raised from the cutoff to 70,000, and Jimmy Tran called from the big blind. The flop came {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}, Tran checked, Pniak bet 70,000, and Tran called. The turn card was the {6-Diamonds}, and both players checked. The river card was the {J-Spades}, and Tran moved all in. Pniak thought for about 30 seconds, before reluctantly saying "I call," and showing {J-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for a full house, aces full of jacks.

At that point, Tran stood up and yelled, "Jimmy Tran!" to the delight of his friends in the crowd. He then showed {A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for quad aces. Tom Pniak was eliminated in 21st place, earning $92,820.

After the hand, Jimmy Tran had 2,728,000 in chips. The next player eliminated will receive $123,670 for 20th place.
