Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Hollis Barnhart told the table he "had a good feeling about this one" and moved his remaining 113,000 into the middle, finding a call from defending champion Massoud Eskandari on the button.
Hollis Barnhart: Q?Q?
Massoud Eskandari: 10?7?
Barnhart survived the J?3?2?7?K? runout to double his stack, taking a chunk of Eskandari's stack while looking to improve on his 12th place finish in this event last year.
