From under the gun, Gavin Smith open-shoved for 302,000 and the action folded around to Selim Oulmekki, who snap-called out of the small blind. "What, you have something like eight-deuce?" Smith quipped.
Nope. Oulmekki showed 
, ahead of Smith's 
. However, Smith was able to spike two pair on the board of 
to double up.
Mike Meyers, Andy Philachack and John Borzio all went to a flop of 
. Philachack checked, Meyers bet 137,000 and Borzio folded.
Philachack looked Meyers dead in the eye and said, "I'm gonna raise you Mikey." Philachack slid out a 500,000 stack of greens. Meyers quickly shoved and Philachack called as quick.
Meyers: 
Philachack: 
Philacheck was ahead with his two pair but Meyers was drawing live. The turn came 
and the river came 
. Meyers quickly collected his things while his rail stood in stunned silence. Philachack is cracked 3,000,000 with that pot.
All the money was in the middle before the flop; Bryan Paris found himself in the lead holding 
against Steven Michaelis' 
, but a very scary flop of 
was spread, giving Michaelis a boatload of outs, and he caught a few more with the turn of the 
.
However, the 
bricked out on the river and Paris' supporters celebrated as Michaelis walked away. We're now down to 13 players.
The action folded to Selim Oulmekki who raised to 52,000 from the hijack position before Jani Mikkola shoved from the button. James Boyle went deep into the tank in the small blind and eventually had the clock called on him. Boyle's hand was counted out; Oulmekki quickly called.
Mikkola:
Oulmekki: 
The flop was a demoralizing 
to give Oulmekki two pair, which surprised even him and his rail! The turn and river ran out 
, and that was the end of Mikkola's run. He'll pick up $36,143 for his 15th place finish.
Yoonjun Park shoved preflop holding 
and got a call from Andy Philachack holding . The board ran dry for Park and Philachack's aces held sending Park to the rail.
Bradley Meyers was eliminated in 17th place. We missed the action as we where chasing down Gravatt.
Jason Gravatt has been eliminated in 18th place. We missed the action but as he was walking away he was grumbling something about ace high.
