Francis Lynch Eliminated in 18th Place ($19,708)
After Matt Wilkins raised to 41,000 from the hijack, Francis Lynch responded by shoving all-in from the cutoff. Paul Nash, perhaps emboldened by the raucous chanting of his British countrymen in the nearby final table arena, decided to push all-in as well. Wilkins quickly got out of the way and left Nash and Lynch to settle their score.
Showdown:
Nash: 
Lynch: 
It was a classic coin flip situation and Lynch would need help to overcome the pocket pair of Nash.
The flop was a dry one for Lynch, coming 
. With no clubs on board, he would be looking for aces or jacks from here on out.
Turn: 
River: 
The board stayed low and Nash's pair of nines remained the best hand. Lynch was eliminated in 18th place and will take home $19,708 for his efforts.
