There was a cooler situation at Table 7, with a flop of Kc9d5c. George Varga got it all in from middle position for 3,800,000 with KhKd for a set of kings, and he needed it to hold to stay alive against the 9s9c (set of nines) of Glayson Leroy in the hijack.

The turn card was the 7c, giving Leroy outs to a club flush, but the river card was the 10h. Varga won the pot with his set of kings to double up in chips, knocking Leroy down to just 650,000 in chips.

George Varga  –  9,000,000  (45 bb)
Glayson Leroy  –  650,000  (3 bb)

Down to just three big blinds, Leroy was eliminated a few minutes later in 22nd place. Here are the most recent eliminations:

22nd:  Glayson Leroy  –  $10,000
23rd:  Scott Johnson  –  $10,000
24th:  Raul Hernandez  –  $8,100

With 21 players remaining, the average chip stack is around 5,600,000 (28 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed to earn at least $10,000 each.
