Calen McNeil Eliminated in 10th Place ($37,663)
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Calen McNeil limped the button and Ryan Hoenig did so from the small blind, John Holley checked in the big blind.
Hoenig bet the A?5?4? flop for both opponents to call and the J? turn was checked to McNeil, who pushed all-in for 325,000. Hoenig folded and Holley asked for a count as McNeil started fist-bumping and declaring "I can't lose".
"You are a nice guy," Holley said after mulling it over for half a minute and he then called.
Calen McNeil: A?5?4?4?
John Holley: A?K?7?6?
Holley had top pair, plus straight and flush draws against the middle set of McNeil with the latter asking for a low card.
That wish was granted but the 3? river gave Holley a flush and low to send McNeil out in tenth place for $37,663.
