Thomas Eliminated in 7th Place
On blinds of 25,000/50,000/50,000, Benjamin Thomas opened to 100,000 from the hijack and Hung Tran defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♦7♦4♦ and Tran donk-jammed as the covering stack. Thomas went into the tank.
After a few minutes, Thomas called for his tournament life and turned over the naked K♦J♥. Tran rolled over A♠8♠ for a pair of aces. Thomas was drawing at a diamond or running outs.
The 6♣ turn and 5♣ river sealed Thomas' fate. Thomas finished in seventh place for $14,590.
Thomas: K♦J♥ (all-in)
Tran: A♠8♠
Board: A♦7♦4♦6♣5♣
