Acosta Eliminates Howard Solomon on the Money Bubble

Before the Tournament Director had a chance to pause the clock for hand-for-hand, Howard Solomon got it all in preflop and four opponents called to put him at risk. 

There was a small side pot but the players checked through the runout of 4♥K♥9♣3♦8♠ and the hands were tabled. 

It was determined that Julian Acosta held the best hand for the side pot with K♠T♦ for top pair, and with Solomon holding Q♣J♦, it was also good to take the main pot, eliminating Solomon in the process, sending the players into the money.
