Luke Martinelli Eliminated
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Christian Nilles got his last 167,000 in the middle before the flop against his neighbor Luke Martinelli. It was a coin flip situation as Nilles showed

. The board ran out 
ending the roller coaster of a board in favorite of Nilles' jacks.
Martinelli was down to just a couple of chips and was in the big blind not much later. Fedor Holz opened for 18,000 and cutoff Steven Swalling called. Martinelli raised all in for 22,000 total and Holz and Swalling both called.

Holz bet out 20,000 on 
and Swalling called. Holz check-called 26,000 on the 
turn before he check-folded to Swalling's 57,000 bet on the 
river. Swalling showed and knocked out Martinelli who only had 
.
