James Chen Eliminated in 10th Place ($60,315)
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Adrian Mateos opened to 160,000 in the hijack and James Chen jammed 1,000,000 next to act. The action quickly folded back to Mateos and he made the call.
James Chen: A♦5♦ 
Adrian Mateos: 9♣9♦
The 7♥6♥4♥ flop gave Chen some extra outs with an open-ended straight draw. The 9♥ turn improved Mateos to a set of nines and the A♠ river meant Chen was headed to the payout desk in tenth place.
