8th Place: Connor Drinan ($102,760)


On a 9-7-6 flop, Connor Drinan moved all in with [Jc][Tc] and was called by his opponent holding pocket aces. Connor was caught bluffing, but had a gutshot. The [6c] on the turn opened up a flush draw for Connor, but a blank hit the river to send Connor to the rail. For his efforts, Connor will earn $102,760 for his 8th place finish.

9th Place: Jim Collopy ($72,000)


Jim Collopy was all in preflop holding [Kc][Kh] and was up against Anthony Gregg's ace queen. Jim was all smiles until the [Jd][6c][Ad] flop fell. Jim failed to find a king to save his tournament life, and he will exit in 9th place for $72,000.

10th Place: Paulo Treu ($51,480)


11th Place: Sam Panzica ($51,480)


12th Place: Matt Salsberg ($51,480)


Matt Salsberg has been eliminated when his ace queen failed to improve against Griffin Paul's pocket jacks. Matt will exit this tournament in 12th place, good for $51,480.

Two bounties now remain: Maria Ho and Connor Drinan.
