Ronnie D'Grillo Eliminated in 8th Place ($1,054)

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Ronnie D'Grillo made it 32,000 before John Michalak pushed all in for 81,000. Gene Amplement responded by pushing all in having them both covered and D'Grillo called it off before three classic hands were shown down creating shock and awe from all in attendance.

Michalak: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Amplement: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
D'Grillo: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and while Michalak tripled up and Amplement chipped up, D'Grillo busted.
