Byung Eun Shin Eliminated in 18th Place ($29,900)
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Maria Konnikova opened to 80,000 from under the gun and Byung Eun Shin defended his big blind.
On the K?10?8? flop, Konnikova continued for 160,000 before Shin check-jammed for 470,000 and Konnikova snapped it off.
Byung Eun Shin: 10?8? 
Maria Konnikova: A?A?
Shin had outflopped Konnikova's aces and looked to be in good shape to double. The 5? turn was safe for Shin and he even picked up a flush draw. However, the dealer peeled the K? on the river to counterfeit Shin as he hit the rail in 18th place.
