Chris Schonbach Eliminated in 12th Place ($14,425)
Soon after returning from the break, Chris Schonbach lost a significant pot in a hand versus Paul Snead that saw Schonbach lose about half of his stack, knocking him back down under 400,000.
Soon after that a hand arose in which Kevin Saul open-raised to 60,000 from middle position and got two callers in Snead (small blind) and Schonbach (big blind). The flop came 
and when Snead checked, Schonbach declared he was pushing all in for his last 215,000.
Saul hesitated, then engaged Snead in some conversation before saying he was calling Schonbach's bet. Snead quickly let his hand go, then smiled as he saw Saul turn over 
for a set of treys — well ahead of the pair of tens Schonbach had with 
.
"You were trying to goad me in there," said Snead to Saul as the turn brought the 
, thereby making the 
river no matter.
Just 11 remain.
