Bensimhon Crashes Out to the Computer Hand

Level 25 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Eric Bensimhon
Eric Bensimhon

Balakrishna Patur shoved all in from the small blind and Eric Bensimhon called off his stack of around 400,000 from the big blind.

Eric Bensimhon: A10 All in
Balakrishna Patur: Q7

The flop of 8J2 was safe for Bensimhon but Patur paired up on the Q turn. Bensimhon still had outs but the J river wasn't what he was looking for which meant he was eliminated.

Matt Affleck
Matt Affleck

Kia Raisdana opened the hijack and Matt Affleck three-bet from the cutoff to 220,000. Ruiko Mamiya was on the button and four-bet to 450,000, and Raisdana folded. Affleck took his time before he announced that he was all in for around 1,300,000, and Mamiya snap-called.

Matt Affleck: AK All in
Ruiko Mamiya: AA

Nothing changed after the dealer ran a board of 2567Q which meant Affleck was eliminated, and Mamiya added yet more chips to her stack.

Vayssieres Finds a Two-Outer and Eliminates Two Players

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Nicholas Vayssieres
Nicholas Vayssieres

Chi Nguyen shoved all in from early position for around 245,000 and Nicolas Vayssieres called from the hijack. Xuming Qi was in the cutoff and shoved all in for over 300,000, and when it got back to Vayssieres, he called.

Chi Nguyen: A5 All in
Xuming Qi: AA All in
Nicolas Vayssieres: JJ

Qi had a perfect spot to almost triple his stack but was left with just one out after the 10J10 flop as Vayssieres hit a boat. No miracle one-outer arrived as neither the 8 turn nor 3 river offered any help to Qi, which meant he and Nguyen were eliminated.

Jeremiah Wheeler: K9 All in
Ruiko Mamiya: 88

Wheeler didn't catch any piece of the Q54AA runout which meant he was eliminated.

Hellmuth Eliminated

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Phil Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth

Phil Hellmuth raised to 70,000 from the hijack and Ruiko Mamiya called from the big blind.

They both saw a flop of J55 which Mamiya checked, Hellmuth bet 50,000, and Mamiya called.

The 7 turn was checked through to the Q river. Mamiya announced that she was all in, and Hellmuth had a decision for his remaining 115,000 chips.

"What do you have?" asked Hellmuth.

Eventually, Hellmuth put in the remainder of his stack.

Mamiya quickly tabled Q10 and Hellmuth shot up out of his seat in disgust. After some time looking back at the board and his cards (plus letting out some expletives), Hellmuth mucked his cards face down into the muck. It is not known what Hellmuth had but the A was spotted as he was standing and looking at his hole cards, the other remains a mystery.

Rosen Sent to the Rail

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jesse Rosen opened to 325,000 from under the gun, and he was called by the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of 7A2 and both player immediately turned over their cards, as Rosen and his last red chip worth 5,000 was called.

Jesse Rosen: QQ All in
Big blind: AJ

The player in the big blind hit top pair on the flop, so Rosen was eliminated after the K turn and the 3 river.

Alex Massman in the cutoff easily called after Stefan Atanasov in the big blind raised all-in for 605,000.

Stefan Atanasov: A10 All in
Alex Massman: AA

Even if he flopped two pair, Atanasov couldn't do much against Massman's set on 109A86 and was eliminated.

William Anderson: A10 All in
Guofeng Wang: QQ

Despite picking up a flush draw on the turn, Anderson never managed to survive on the 32798 runout.

Verderamo Sends Wei to the Rail

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Fahredin Mustafov raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Nicholas Verderamo three-bet to 160,000 from middle position.

Action folded around to Guoliang Wei in the big blind, who four-bet shoved all-in, putting himself at risk. Mustafov folded, and Verderamo quickly called.

Guoliang Wei: JJ All in
Nicholas Verderamo: AA

Wei pulled ahead on the J10Q flop, spiking a jack to keep his tournament hopes alive. That was until the A came on the turn, giving Verderamo the lead. The river brought the 6 and Wei was sent to the payout desk.
