Matthew Kolibas Eliminated in 16th Place ($85,519)
Level 24
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Billy Tarango opened to 300,000 from under the gun and received calls from Matthew Kolibas in the hijack and David Eldridge in the big blind.
The flop came 10♣8♣8♥. Eldridge checked, Tarango bet 500,000, Kolibas called and Eldridge got out of the way.
On the 3♥ turn Tarango continued with a bet of 900,000. Kolibas moved all in for around 2,750,000 and Tarango, who had his opponent slightly covered, made the call.
Matthew Kolibas: K♥10♥9♠7♠ 
Billy Tarango: K♠10♠10♦6♥
Kolibas was drawing dead on the turn against Tarango's flopped full house and after the Q♥ river was dealt he made his exit from the tournament area while Tarango dragged in nearly a full double up.
