Mike Kosowski Eliminated in 16th Place ($7,280)
Level 23
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Mike Kosowski opened to 26,000 from early position and found calls from both Albert Winchester and Roland Israelashvili.
The flop fell and the two checked to Kosowski who continued for 61,000. Winchester check-raised to 167,000, Israelashvili folded, Kosowski moved all in and Winchester called.

Kosowski needed a jack to win or a three or running pair cards to chop. Unfortunately for him the turn and river came , respectively and he was eliminated from the tournament. Kosowski will have to settle with $7,280 for his 16th place finish, but we're sure he's still sitting on some dough from his Million Dollar Challenge victory.
Winchester is now our chip leader after winning the million-chip pot.
