Event 1 (Day 2): 12th Place - Roinnel ($1,623)

Level 26 (Blinds 15,000/30,000/5,000)
Total Entries: 560
Players Remaining: 11
Chip Average: 783,000

David Roinnel
David Roinnel would take the vacant seat that Carmelo Alfonso just left, and it would take one hand for Roinnel to get involved.  After an open from Joshua Gordon in the cutoff, Roinnel shoved his short stack, and once the action folded around was called by Joshua:

Roinnel: 7 8         Gordon: 10♠ 10♣

Flop: Q♠ Q 3

Turn: A

River: 2♠

Roinnel needed some help in order to come from behind for his tournament life, but he would be drawing dead on the turn.  He would collect $1,623 for his 12th place finish.  The field is now one more elimination from the "unofficial" final table of ten.
