Dennis Rodriguez

Will Berry min-raised from the button to 150,000, Dennis Rodriguez moved all in from the small blind for 850,000, and Berry thought for a while before he called with Ah8c.

Rodriguez turned over KdQd, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came KcJs9s5sAs — Rodriguez paired his king on the flop, but Berry paired his ace on the river to win the pot and eliminate Rodriguez in 14th place.

Will Berry  –  4,800,000  (64 bb)
Dennis Rodriguez  –  Eliminated in 14th Place  ($39,270)

With 13 players remaining from a field of 1,165, the average chip stack is about 3,575,000 (48 big blinds). The remaining players are all guaranteed at least $39,270 each, and the next pay jump will be $48,805 for 12th place.

Action will continue tonight until the end of Level 28, or there are six players left, whichever comes first.
