Chance Kornuth raised to 225,000 and Aaron Mermelstein as the far shortest stack defended out of the big blind.
"It's still $10k," Kornuth remarked and Mermelstein replied "yeah but I gotta at least see the flop". Mermelstein then pushed for the rest of it on the flop and Kornuth called in an instant.
Aaron Mermelstein:
Chance Kornuth:
With one eight gone and the ace dead as that would give Kornuth broadway, the chances of Mermelstein were very slim. It was all over on the turn and the river ended his run in 14th place for $67,313.

Chance Kornuth and Gregory Shuda invested 240,000 before the flop and a raising war on the flop got the chips of both in with Shuda as the player at risk.
Gregory Shuda:
Chance Kornuth:
"Come on spades," Shuda demanded but he was equally happy about the turn, which provided the superior two pair. Another blank followed with the river and Shuda doubled for 1,885,000 in order to surpass Kornuth on the leaderboard.

Gregory Shuda opened the action with a raise and was called by Josh Arieh from one seat over and Scott Ball in the big blind. The flop was checked by Ball, Shuda then bet 250,000 and that forced a fold from Arieh. Ball opted to see one more card and tossed in calling chips.
On the turn, Ball checked and Shuda immediately bet 500,000 in order to claim the pot right there.

Scott Ball raised the pot and Chance Kornuth then three-bet the pot from one seat over. Ball moved all-in and the dealer already announced all-in and call. "I haven't called yet but I gonna do so now," Kornuth said and the cards were flipped over.
Chance Kornuth:
Scott Ball:
The flop was already huge for Ball and he locked it up on the turn, making the river a formality. Both stacks were counted as they were very close in chips. Ball had 1,735,000 at his disposal and Kornuth was covered by just 10,000 to exit in 13th place for $80,105.

Jonas Kronwitter had most of his short stack in before the flop and was called by Sam Stein. The German and Austria resident jokingly said "good luck" before they headed to the flop. Kronwitter jammed for around 250,000 and Stein snap-called.
Jonas Kronwitter:
Sam Stein:
Kronwitter had plenty of outs to make a straight and potentially chop. Some of them vanished on the turn as Stein had diamonds covered, and the river only gave Kronwitter an inferior pair of sevens. As a result, the German was eliminated in 11th place and the final 10 are now on two five-handed tables. Once the next contender bows out, they will combine to the nine-handed unofficial final table.
