Sam "SamSquid" Grafton Eliminated in 21st Place ($49,894)
Level 31
: Blinds 70,000/140,000, 17,500 ante
"Thurpan" raised to 280,000 from middle position and Ivan "ILS007" Stokes three-bet to 910,000 from the cutoff. Sam "SamSquid" Grafton then four-bet to 3,220,000 from the big blind, only leaving himself 391,766 behind. "Thurpan" folded but Stokes moved in for the rest and Grafton made the call.
Sam "SamSquid" Grafton: A?K?
Ivan "ILS007" Stokes: J?J?
It was a classic flip, and this time it would be Stokes who was victorious when the board ran out 9?7?10?5?10?. Grafton was the last member of Team PokerStars to still be in the Main Event but his deep run came to a halt in 21st place.
