Anton Morgenstern Eliminated in 17th Place ($103,093)
Anton Morgenstern only had a few big blinds left after the dinner break, and they went in on the very first hand. He open-jammed for 375,000 from under the gun and Pakinai Lisawad rejammed from the hijack for 1,020,000.
Chip leader Tyler Smith was in the small blind and four-bet pot, putting the remaining player Adam Hendrix in the big blind also at risk if he would make the call. However, a four-way all-in was averted as Hendrix folded his hands after utilizing sever time bank extensions. Thus, the three other players showed down.
Anton Morgenstern: A♥A♣10♣8♠
Pakinai Lisawad: J♥10♦9♥8♦
Tyler Smith: K♥K♦4♣3♠
Morgenstern had the aces but immideately got outflopped by Smith on 9♣4♦3♥. The two pair of Smith remained strong on the 6♠ turn, but the 10♠ river brought Lisawad a higher two pair.
Lisawad ended up taking the entire pot down and more than doubled up. Meanwhile, Morgenstern was eliminated as the last player before the final two table redraw.
