Daniel Charlton Eliminated in 9th Place (£12,500)

Level 33 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Thomas Hemming raised to 500,000 from early position with {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Daniel Charlton, on the button with {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, and Steven Morris, in the big blind with {8-Spades}{6-Hearts} both called.

All three players checked on the {a-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop. When the {3-Diamonds} turn was revealed both Morris and Hemming checked their option, to Charlton who bet 700,000. Morris was sat with an up-and-down straight draw and raised to 2.1million which Charlton called.

The pot was now 6.1million, and Morris hit his straight on the river after the {9-Diamonds} had appeared. He announced all in and left Charlton to mull over a huge decision for his tournament life with top pair.

Charlton, who has $2,490,227 in online tournament earnings, talked himself through the hand and smiled to the rail while deciding what to do. After a moment more thought he made the call and saw the bad news from Morris.

Charlton bubbles the official final table of eight and takes home £12,500 for his efforts this week in Nottingham.
