Level 26
: 40,000/80,000, 0 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Chris Vitch's 8-Game run has come to a close. The Day 1 chip leader lost his tournament life when he open-shoved his remaining 350,000 from the small blind, and Ron Ware called in the big blind to put him at risk.

Ware: 
Vitch was in bad shape, hoping for a queen to crack Ware's jacks, but he wouldn't get one. The 
board was all but dramatic, sending Vitch to the rail in fifth place. The WSOP bracelet winner collected $27,142 for his efforts.
Ware is now navigating more than two million chips, nearly 60 percent of all the goods in play.
