Bob Mather moved all in under the gun for 200,000, Ian O’Hara reraised UTG+1 to 325,000, and everyone else folded.

Mather turned over Ad4d, and he needed his hand to hold to stay alive against O’Hara’s Kc10c.

The board came Jd10d6h2s8s, and O’Hara paired his ten on the flop to win the pot and eliminate Mather in 16th place.

Ian O’Hara  –  4,300,000  (57 bb)
Bob Mather  –  Eliminated in 16th Place  ($46,700)

With 15 players remaining, the average chip stack is about 3,150,000 (42 big blinds). The remaining players are all guaranteed at least $57,515, and the next pay jump is $73,655 for 12th place.

Action will continue tonight until the field is down to the final nine players for tomorrow’s final table.
