Event 3: Stalled at 12

$350 + $50 (NL)

The final dozen played an entire level without an elimination. Play continued into Level 17 with blinds of 5k/8k and 500 antes.

Jay Johnson and Vinh Nguyen got to the turn with a board of QJ55 where Jay (big blind) bet 15k. Vinh thought about it, then called. River was the A and Jay made a motion like he was going to shove, but then checked. Vinh bet 30k. Jay gave it a little think time, then called. Vinh showed A2 for a pair of Aces (busted flush draw). Jay mucked and Vinh chipped up to about 350k, solidly in the chip lead.

On the next hand, Clayton Fletcher (button) moved all-in when action folded to him. Jay was in the small blind and called all-in, showing AQ off. Clayton held K2 off (oops). The board came 9 4 3 6 8 and Jay doubled up to ~240k.
