Caleb Levesque Eliminated in 9th Place ($41,337)
Level 41
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante
Simon Britton raised 6,000,000 in early position with J♦10♦, and Stephen Winters called with 6♥6♣.
Action folded to Caleb Levesque, who was in the big blind and held K♣Q♦. Levesque, one of the short stacks at the final table, announced an all-in bet, which forced out Britton.
Winters, the chip leader, quickly called to put Levesque at risk.
The dealer fanned 3♠J♠2♣ on the flop, keeping Winters in the lead. The 9♠ appeared on the turn, giving Levesque a gutshot straight draw in addition to potentially pairing his king or queen on the river to keep him alive.
The 9♦ on the river, though, gave Winters the winning hand with two pair. Levesque exited in ninth place for a payout of $41,337.
