Shaun Deeb Eliminated in 17th Place ($8,647)
Shaun Deeb raised to 850,000 from under the gun, and Stuart McMahen made the call from the cutoff. The action folded to Jerome Hickel in the big blind who three-bet the pot. Deeb called for his remaining 125,000. McMahen tanked and then folded for the cards to go on their backs.
Shaun Deeb: 8♠8♦3♥3♦
Jerome Hickel: K♠K♦9♣4♥
The flop came 10♦5♦5♠ to keep Hickel ahead.
The turn was the 8♥ for Deeb to hit a full house.
"That's a great card for you," Hickel commented.
The river completed the board with the K♥ for Hickel to hit the higher full house.
"Oh, but that's a great card for me," Hickel added while rapping the table as Deeb made his way out of the tournament area.
The final sixteen players racked up their chips and then made their way to their new seats on the final two tables.
