Peter Darvill Eliminated in 31st Place ($285,678)
Peter Darvill opened up for a 180,000 raise from the button. Bill Edler re-raised from the small blind to 480,000. Darvill called. The flop was {5-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}. Edler moved all in for 2,100,000. Darvill went into the tank. He turned to a friend on the rail ad said, "Got my bag there? Get the bobble head out."
Darvill's friend handed him a Phil Hellmuth bobble head doll and he put it in front of Elder.
"Look him up and down for me Phil," Darvill joked.
Darvill made the call with {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Edler flipped over {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Darvill was ahead. The turn was the {A-Diamonds} and the river was the {9-Clubs}. Edler took down the pot with a pair of nines and Darvill was eliminated.
Featured Table - Jason Koshi Eliminated in 30th Place ($285,678)
On the Featured Table, Kenny Tran raises from late position to 175,000, Jason Koshi moves all in from the button for 945,000, and Tran quickly but casually calls with {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}. Koshi shows {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and he needs to improve to stay alive.
The flop comes {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, and Tran retains a big lead with his pocket aces. Koshi needs something runner-runner to survive.
The turn card is the {2-Spades}, and Koshi is drawing dead. (The meaningless river card is the {6-Diamonds}.) Kenny Tran wins the pot with a pair of aces.
Jason Koshi is eliminated in 30th place, earning $285,678.
