Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Hand #42: Justin Zaki raised to 200,000 from the cutoff and Cuong Van Nguyen defended his big blind. The flop {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Spades} and Van Nguyen check-folded to Zaki's bet of 135,000.

Hand #43: Brian Yoon raised to 200,000 from the button and Nghi Tran called from the big blind.

Tran checked, leading to a Yoon bet of 500,000. After a little while in the tank, Tran called.

Yoon tabled {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a flush, Tran mucked, and Yoon took down the pot, upping his stack to about 6.7 million in the process.

Hand #44: Nghi Tran called from the small blind and Justin Zaki checked his option. The {K-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop was checked by both players and when the {7-Spades} turn fell, Tran bet 250,000. Zaki raised to 660,000, only to see Tran come back over the top of 1.2 million. Zaki called, resulting in the {8-Hearts} river. Tran shoved with the bigger stack and Zaki called all in for 1.06 million with {K-Spades}{7-Hearts}. Tran's {8-Spades}{5-Clubs} was no match for Zaki's two pair, giving Zaki the double up.

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Joe Morneau - 6th Place
Joe Morneau - 6th Place

Hand #39: Nghi Tran raised to 250,000 after action folded to his button, and he took down the pot.

Hand #40: Joe Morneau raised to 225,000 after action folded to his small blind. Roland Israelashvili called. Morneau bet 150,000 on the {3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop. Israelashvili raised it up to 400,000, and Morneau made the call. The turn paired the board with the {3-Hearts}, and both players checked to see the {2-Diamonds}. Morneau again checked, and Israelashvili bet another 400,000. Morneau folded after about 30 seconds of thought.

Hand #41: Morneau raised to 200,000 after action folded to his button. Israelashvili called from the small blind, as did Brian Yoon in the big blind. The blinds checked the {9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop, and Morneau bet 250,000. Israelashvili folded, but Yoon came out with a check-raise to 650,000. Morneau called. A {4-Diamonds} hit the turn, and Yoon jammed for just under 1.7 million. Morneau called off his last 1.55 million after about a minute.

Morneau: {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Yoon: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

Yoon needed to catch a heart or an ace to survive, and he did just that when the {3-Hearts} came on the river. Morneau was eliminated in sixth.
