Shinya Nakajima Eliminated in 24th Place ($11,487)
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Right before the Dinner break, short-stacked Shinya Nakajima moved all in from the small blind and was called by Kevin Madar in the big blind to put him at risk.
Shinya Nakajima: 7♠8♠
Kevin Madar: 9♠2♦
Although Nakajima's suited connecter hand was much prettier than Madar's, his eight-high was still behind nine-high. The runout of J♦4♦K♣K♠10♠ failed to help Nakajima and he was eliminated while Madar was awarded the pot with nine-high.
