Dan Bekavac put in 21,000 from the cutoff, Roshan Brown called from the button, and the player in the big blind moved all in for 117,000. Bekavac and Brown both called, and any additional betting would create a side pot.

The flop came QdJs2d, Bekavac checked, Brown moved all in for roughly 300K, and Bekavac folded 7s7h face up.

The big blind turned over 9s9d, but needed to improve to stay alive against Brown’s AsQh (pair of queens).

The turn card was the 4d, the river card was the 10h, and Brown won the pot with his pair of queens to eliminate the player in the big blind from the tournament.

Roshan Brown  –  665,000  (83 bb)
Dan Bekavac  –  1,053,000  (132 bb)

With approximately 263 players remaining from a field of 2,010, the average chip stack is about 382,000 (48 big blinds). The final 252 players will finish in the money, earning at least $5,650 each.

There will be a 90-minute dinner break after this level, around 6:35 pm. Action is scheduled to continue tonight until the end of Level 20, around 12:30 am.
