AJ Kelsall

AJ Kelsall and Sean Iannucci were both eliminated on the money bubble in Event 5. They split the 15th place prize money for $1,190 a piece. This was Kelsall’s third cash of the tournament series in just the first two days.

Kelsall fell when his pocket nines couldn’t hold up against the AdKc held by Clyde Maliauka on a board dealt 8d8h5hAcKs.

On the same hand over at the other table Iannucci got all in with 10s9d, and he fell to the QcJh of Austin McCullers on a final board reading Js9c2s6cAs.

Every player remaining will now take home at least $2,480 in prize money.

Clyde Maliauka – 194,000 (64 bb)
Austin McCullers – 178,000 (59 bb)
