Level 25
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

MacKenzie:
Block:
Block was pleased to see he had two live cards. The flop gave each player a straight draw, and the turn moved Block into the lead with his top pair.
"Hold," Block pleaded. "Brick! Brick!"
The river was exactly that and MacKenzie was eliminated in eighth place.
