Jesse Lonis Eliminated in 10th Place ($40,769)
Jesse Lonis committed most of his 1,115,000 stack from under the gun, leaving just a few chips behind. James Vecchio called off his 920,000 stack from the button. Felipe Ramos and Jeremy Eyer folded in the blinds, and the cards were tabled.
James Vecchio: 10♠10♦
Jesse Lonis: 9♦9♥
Vecchio had the better pair and left Lonis on fumes after his tens held on the J♣7♦5♥4♥A♥ runout.
The following hand, Lonis was forced all in from the big blind. Nozomu Shimizu opened to 205,000 first to act and Felipe Ramos called from the button.
Action checked through to showdown for the final board to read A♥9♠4♣4♥2♦.
Lonis tabled Q♠3♥ for queen-high, Ramos had pocket sevens, but Shimizu had the winner with his Kx9x, which was good for a pair of nines.
Shimizu collected the pot to move above 4,000,000 in chips while busting Lonis on the unofficial final table bubble.
