Nick Sims Eliminated in 10th Place ($1,100)
Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Nick Sims moved all in from under the gun for 330,000, as did Miguel Medrano in the big blind for a very similar stack.
Miguel Medrano: A♦J♦
Nick Sims: K♥9♦
The flop came J♣J♠8♣ instantly bringing trips to Medrano. The 10♣ on the turn gave Sims some hope with a gutshot straight draw, but the 8♠ on the river filled up Medrano.
After the chips were counted up, Sims was left with just 5,000 chips.
He spun it up to 50,000, but then shoved his K♠7♥ under the gun into Ian Auvil's K♥K♦, and after a J♣6♦2♦3♣8♦ runout, last year's third-place finisher was eliminated in 10th place.
