Brian Pinkus Eliminated in 12th Place ($10,685)
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
WSOP bracelet winner Michael Wang raised 8,000 in early position and action fell on Brian Pinkus to Wang’s immediate left.
Pinkus took a brief moment before announcing an all-in bet for his remaining stack, which Wang covered. Wang snap-called and the cards were tabled.
Brian Pinkus: A♦10♥ 
Michael Wang: A♠J♣
Wang hit the flop when the dealer fanned J♦4♠K♠, but Pinkus picked up a gutshot straight draw. The 2♣ on the turn and 9♣ on the river didn’t help Pinkus and he was sent to the rail in 12th place.
