Andy Van Blair Eliminated in 9th Place ($8,217); Brandon Smith Eliminated in 10th Place ($5,341)
Level 26
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Brandon Smith shoved all in from early position for 275,000 and was called by Nick Jivkov in the hijack. Andy Van Blair then shoved for about 450,000 in the blinds, and Jivkov called.
Jivkov: 
Van Blair: 
Smith: 
No more jacks remained in the deck, but the worst hand quickly became by far the best as the flop brought 
, giving Jivkov a nearly unbeatable flush. The 
turn meant the hand was done, and a 
finished the board out.
