Geoff Channing Eliminated in 9th Place ($1,899)

Geoff Channing is the next casualty of this final table and once again it was at the hands of chip leader Harry Ligos.

Ligos raised from late position to 41,000 and Channing moved all in for his last 18,000. The blinds folded and the players showed their holdings:

Channing: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Ligos: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The board ran out {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and Channing heads to the cashier to collect $1,899 for his 9th place finish. Ligos is now up to 330,000 chips.
