Michael Rea Eliminated in 15th Place ($9,032)
Level 30
: 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Michael Rea's tournament just came to an end, and shortly after dispatching Sergei Rylkov in 17th place, it was Carlos Alvarado who did the deed.
The flop read when we caught the action, and Rea had checked to Alvarado. The tap of the table prompted a bet of 480,000 from Alvarado, and soon afterward Rea announced himself all in for his last 1,400,000. Alvarado snapped him off and tabled , and when he saw Rea's for a pair and flush draw, he asked the dealer to "keep it clean one time."
The dealer did just that, producing the on the turn and the on the river.
Rea earned $9,032 for his deep run, while Alvarado notched his second knockout of the day to build his stack over the 5 million mark.
