Matthew Hankins Eliminated in 27th Place ($7,961)
Level 24
: 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante
Dane Cass was just eliminated in 28th place after running 
into Ray Weaver's 
and failing to improve. And before the three-table redraw could happen, Matthew Hankins was eliminated in 27th place on the neighboring table.
Hankins had first lost a significant percentage of his small stack with 
versus Larry Gurney's 
when the 
board failed to improve Hankins's hand.
Soon after that one, Hankins was all in with 
versus James Kinney's 
. The community cards brought five spades — 
— meaning the spade in Kinney's hand gave him the flush and the best hand, knocking out Hankins.
There will be a brief pause while the final 26 players redraw for new seats.
