Benoit Coulombe had under a million chips left, and the big slick was one of the hands that he was definitely going all the way with. Unfortunately for him, Nirvair Sandhu was dealt aces on that hand, and despite hitting a king on the flop, Coulombe was taken out in 21st.

Benjamin Mathieu-Comtois followed in 20th, leaving just 19 players playing somewhat short-handed. Three more eliminations are needed before players are shuffled again, randomly redistributed on 2 tables of 8 and allowed some time to breathe before they are hit with another series of blinds.

21st: Benoit Coulombe – $4,160
20th: Benjamin Mathieu-Comtois – $4,160
