Aaron Mermelstein Eliminated in 14th Place ($67,313)
Level 25
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Chance Kornuth raised to 225,000 and Aaron Mermelstein as the far shortest stack defended out of the big blind.
"It's still $10k," Kornuth remarked and Mermelstein replied "yeah but I gotta at least see the flop". Mermelstein then pushed for the rest of it on the 
flop and Kornuth called in an instant.
Aaron Mermelstein: 
Chance Kornuth: 
With one eight gone and the ace dead as that would give Kornuth broadway, the chances of Mermelstein were very slim. It was all over on the 
turn and the 
river ended his run in 14th place for $67,313.
