Michael Michnik Eliminated in 9th Place ($35,986)

Michael Michnik - 9th Place
Michael Michnik - 9th Place

Michael Michnik was riding the short stack when he went all in from middle position. Mick Carlson was on the button and went all in over the top. The blinds folded and we were headed to a heads-up showdown.

Michnik: {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Carlson: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Michnik was way behind and failed to improve on a flop of {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. Carlson hit a set with the {a-Clubs} on the turn, but that also put a club draw on the board. If a club came on the river it would lead to a chopped pot. It wasn't to be, though. The river was the {7-Diamonds} which left Carlson's set on top and gave us our first elimination of the day.

Carlson is now up to about 1,200,000 chips.
