Dan Smith Eliminated in 10th Place (�49,050)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Dan Smith
Dan Smith

Vladimir Troyanovskiy raised to 375,000 and Dan Smith in the big blind used one time bank before moving all in.

"Are they finished?" Troyanovskiy asked and glanced over to the other table, then called.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}
Dan Smith: {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}

The board came {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Smith was left with around 200,000. He open-shoved the small blind the next hand and Andras Nemeth called in the big blind.

"I only saw one," Smith said and tabled the {A-Spades}{2-Hearts}. Nemeth had {Q-Hearts}{6-Spades} and got there on the river of a board {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} to send Smith to the rail in 10th place for �49,050. The remaining players will now redraw to the unofficial final table.

Dattani Doubles Through Nemeth

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Andras Nemeth raised to 80,000 from the hijack and saw Michel Dattani three-bet to 310,000 from the small blind. Nemeth then moved all in after Lim folded in the big blind. Dattani had 40,000 behind him and used one timebank card to think for a minute while keeping an eye on the action on the other table. He made the call with 10 seconds left and saw he was ahead of Nemeth.

Michel Dattani:{a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Andras Nemeth: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Board: {2-Spades}{k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}

Dattani kept his lead with a pair of queens on the flop, but Nemeth picked up the nut flush draw on the turn to cause a sweat. But the river bricked for Nemeth and Dattani got his double.

Pascal Lefrancois Eliminated in 11th Place (�49,050)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Pascal Lefrancois
Pascal Lefrancois

Dan Smith had moved all in a few times in a row to build his stack and then Andras Nemeth asked for the stack size of Michel Dattani in the big blind. Dattani replied "395,000" and that prompted Nemeth to move all in from the cutoff, having all opponents behind him comfortably covered.

Pascal Lefrancois in the small blind sighed and double-checked his cards. He let his shot clock run down to two seconds and called all in for 420,000, Dattani folded in the big blind.

Pascal LeFrancois: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Andras Nemeth: {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}

It was a flip for the French-Canadian, but the {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop reduced his odds dramatically. It was all over on the {4-Spades} turn to make the {8-Diamonds} river a formality. LeFrancois has been eliminated in 11th place and takes home �49,050.

Salman Behbehani Eliminatedin 12th Place (�45,620)

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Salman Behbehani
Salman Behbehani

Salman Behbehani moved all in for 60,000 on the button and Wai Leong Chan reshoved out of the small blind. Matthias Eibinger in the big blind asked for a count and called when the jam of Chan was deemed to be for 390,000.

Salman Behbehani: {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}
Wai Leong Chan: {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Matthias Eibinger: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

"I take seven seven on the flop," Behbehani said before the flop fell {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, which gave Chan the lead with a pair of tens. Behbehani picked up some hope with the {8-Clubs} turn, but the {K-Spades} river was a blank. Behbehani was eliminated in 12th place for �45,620, while Chan more than doubled up.
