Christopher Stephan Eliminated in 20th Place ($20,483)
Level 18
: Limits 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
The wild ride of Christopher Stephan had once again seen his stack reduced and he was involved in three-way action out of the small blind against Sam Farha from under the gun and Robert Yass in the big blind.
Stephan was all-in for fewer than a full bet on the A♥8♦6♦3♦ turn as they then headed to the 8♥ river. Yass bet for Farha to call and all cards were revealed.
Stephan exposed his J♦10♦2♥2♠ for a jack-high flush and no low. Farha had the K♥4♠3♥2♣ for the nut low and earned half the pot while Yass earned the high pot with 8♣6♣5♠4♣ for a full house, knocking out Stephan in 20th place for $20,483.
