Elimination Hands:
Brian Friesen Eliminated in 11th Place ($28,297)
Brian Friesen raised to 40,000 and Alexander Wilson put Friesen all in from the big blind. Friesen quickly called, showing pocket kings and was way ahead of Wilson’s pocket nines.
Unfortunately, the board ran out 9535J and Friesen’s kings go down in flames, eliminating him in 11th place.
Alex Ivarsson Eliminated in 10th Place ($39,376)
On a flop of K104, Joe Serock bet 65,000 and Alex Ivarsson moved all in. Serock called, showing pocket aces and Ivarsson was behind with KJ.
The turn was the K, giving Ivarsson the winner, but the river was the A and Serock made aces full to take the pot and send Ivarsson to the rail in tenth place.
