Michael Castro Eliminated in 18th Place ($22,859)
Level 36
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Kyle Case made a big open-raise from middle position to 3,000,000 and Michael Castro shoved 15,000,000 from the cutoff. Joshua Prager was on the button and also shoved for around 20,000,000, which got Case to fold.
Michael Castro: 9♣9♦ 
Joshua Prager: A♣K♥
Castro maintained his lead on the 7♥8♦7♣ flop but an A♥ fell on the turn which left him with just two outs. No more nines could be squeezed out of the deck as the Q♥ river confirmed Castro's elimination.
