Traci Myhrum got it all in from the big blind with 2s2c, but she needs to improve to stay alive against Ronald Campillo’s 8s8h in the hijack.

The board came KdQhJc9h7h, and the pocket eights held up for Campillo to win the pot and eliminate Myhrum in 13th place.

Ronald Campillo  –  11,700,000  (39 bb)
Traci Myhrum  –  Eliminated in 13th Place  ($9,145)

A round later, Ben Boston got it all in from the small blind for 3,650,000 with Qs10c, and he was dominated and facing elimination against Campillo’s AsQh in the hijack.

The board came AcKc3cJc8h — Campillo paired his ace on the flop, but Boston turned a straight and a flush (but not a straight-flush) to win the pot and double up in chips.

Ben Boston  –  7,900,000  (26 bb)
Ronald Campillo  –  8,900,000  (30 bb)
