Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
John Ripnick moved all in the first hand back from dinner break but received no callers.

John Ripnick: A♠A♥
Nenad Dukic: Q♣Q♦
Ripnick had woken up with aces and was a big favorite to double up, but the flop brought Q♠8♦J♥ to give Dukic top set.
The rest of the board came 5♦4♠ and the dealer checked to see if Dukic had Ripnick covered.
"He has the whole tournament covered," tablemate Noah Bronstein said as Ripnick was sent off in 20th place.
