After a couple of double ups – first, Brian Roberts on Moorman with pocket aces, then Shawn Buchanan on Dermot Blain, followed by Blain on Fox – Jake Cody was, to some surprise, eliminated in 7th place at Level 26 (5,000/25,000/50,000). Next out was Buchanan, followed by his eliminator Blain and, later on, Roberts.

In about ten minutes’ time, the heads-up was also set at Level 28 (10,000/40,000/80,000): Fox opened to 160,000 from the button, Moritz Kranich shoved his 1,600,000, Moorman folded and Fox called.

Elio Fox: 11,095,000
Chris Moorman: 6,720,000
