Kincaid Eliminated; Chen Over Two Million
Level 10
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Pieter Aerts had just doubled through John Kincaid, who moved all in for 29,000 on the next hand. It folded to Joao Vieira in the small blind who three-bet all in, forcing out the big blind.
John Kincaid: 10♠9♥
Joao Vieira: Q♣J♦
Vieira was ahead and flopped a pair on the A♠J♥7♣ flop. The turn 9♦ gave Kincaid a pair to go with his gutshot, but the river was the 5♠ and he was eliminated.
Meanwhile, James Chen has made a great start to the day, moving up over two million chips after the first level of the day.
