Rob Mariano Eliminated 21st Place ($1,850)
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Matthew Blagg raised from early position, and when it folded to Rob Mariano on the button, he three-bet all in for his stack of 145,000. Once it folded back to Blagg, he made the call to put Mariano at risk.
Rob Mariano: K?Q? 
Matthew Blagg: A?10?
It was a fair fight, but Mariano would need to improve to stay in the tournament. However, the board ran out 10?5?7?7?A? Blagg improved to two pair, aces and tens, sending Mariano to the rail.
