Tony Sinishtaj Eliminated in 2nd Place ($107,673)

Level 30 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Joseph McKeehen opened with a raise to 105,000 from the button, then Tony Sinishtaj moved to set out a column of chips to reraise to 225,000. Before Sinishtaj's chips had landed on the felt, McKeehen was already saying he was pushing all in, and Sinishtaj quickly called with what he had left behind.

McKeehen: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Sinishtaj: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The board ran out {J-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}, then {3-Clubs}, then {9-Hearts}, and McKeehen's queens had held. Both players earn six-figure paydays for their finishes today, with McKeehen taking his first WSOP gold ring at the age of 21!
