Level 12:  10,000/20,000 with a 20,000 ante

Harvey Castro raised to 40,000 in the cutoff, Eli Berg reraised all in for 158,000 in the small blind, and Castro called with 6d6c.

Berg showed AcTc and needed his hand to improve to survive.

The flop came KsTd2h, giving Berg a pair of tens to pull ahead.

The turn, however, was the 6h and locked up the pot for Castro with a set of sixes, rendering the As river moot.

Harvey Castro  –  1,910,000  (96 bb)
Eli Berg  –  Eliminated

Play is now hand-for-hand on the money bubble. With 14 players remaining, the average stack is about 707,000 (35 big blinds).
