Michael Marks Eliminated in 19th Place ($13,031)
After Antonio Esfandiari raised to 26,000 from the hijack, chip leader Jonathan Driscoll took a moment to ponder before making the call. Michael Marks looked down at his short stack and decided to make his move. He shoved all-in for his last 176,000 and step one of the plan worked when The Magician mucked his hand.

. Marks stood and turned over his 
, telling a friend on the rail "It's nines versus king-ten ... he called with king ten."
Both players watched the flop fall 
and Marks threw his hands up in frustration, telling the same friend "He flopped two par, that's it!" When he saw the 
in the turn he knew it really was over and turned to make a hasty exit. The 
on the river made it official and Driscoll notched his first knockout of the day, building his stack to nearly 1,500,000 in the process.
