Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Total Entries: 1,651
Players Remaining: 23
We've lost just as many players in (10) minutes of this level than we had the entire (90) minutes prior, as James McKeon (Lattingtown, NY) was just eliminated. After an open under the gun to 115,000, Chris Kostoulas flatted UTG +2, and action would fold around to McKeon in the big blind. James three-bet shoved for his remaining 700,000, and after Joshua Hertz folded, Kostoulas made the call:
McKeon: A♠ 3♥
Kostoulas: J♠ J♣
Flop: 8♠ 9♠ 8♥
Turn: 4♣
River: 5♣
McKeon shoved trying to pick up the pot right there and add an extra 250,000 to his stack, but Kostoulas flatted with a big hand, and his pair of jacks would hold. That pot helps Chris recover slightly from the earlier hand against Shinn, when his flopped set fell to a rivered full house.
