Level 36
: 150,000/300,000, 50,000 ante
Steve Billirakis opened to 650,000 from the cutoff and Chris Chong three-bet to 1,825,000 out of the small blind. The action was back on Billirakis who four-bet shoved all in for 9,105,000. Chong thought for a minute and then closed his eyes as he stuck in the chips to call.
Chris Chong: 
Steve Billirakis: 
Billirakis held the superior pocket pair and was in great shape to double up. That was until the dealer fanned the flop of 
with the jack right in the window. The 
on the turn gave Billirakis an open-ended straight draw, but the 
on the river only improved Chong to a full house. Billirakis was eliminated in 11th place and the remaining 10 players will now redraw for seats at the unofficial final table.
