Benjamin Underwood Eliminated in 18th Place ($20,945)
Level 17
: Limits 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
After losing the majority of his stack to Ronnie Bardah in the hand before, Benjamin Underwood raised in the cutoff, leaving only 5,000 chips behind. In the big blind, Chad Eveslage raised him all in, and Underwood made the call.
Benjamin Underwood: A♦J♦ 
Chad Eveslage: 9♠5♥
Underwood was ahead and in a great position to get a double, and the 6♣10♠3♥ flop was a clean one. The turn was the 7♥, which gave Eveslage extra outs with an 8 to make a straight. But Underwood was officially eliminated when the 5♣ hit the river, giving Eveslage the best hand with a pair of fives.
