Brian Phelon Eliminated in 18th Place ($9,801)
Level 25
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
There may be no be rhyme in the the last 30 minute of play, but there has been plenty of reason... Ben Reason that is! Shortly after doubling into the chip lead through Kevin Saul, Reason has sent Brian Phelon home in 18th place.
We didn't catch the preflop action, but we do know that a raising war saw Phelon get his stack of approximately 300,000 all in with the 
against the 
of Reason. It was a classic flip, and Phelon was primed to double when he survived the 
flop. Unfortunately for him, the 
turned to pair Reason. The 
river improved him to two pair and an exhausted Phelon was escorted to the payout desk just shy of Day 3.
