Arpa Huckleberried in 17th Place ($17,300)

Ahmet Arpa
Ahmet Arpa
Ahmet Arpa's two-hand clash with Full Tilt Pro Huck Seed resulted in his elimination from the tournament.

In the first hand, Arpa opened with a raise to 50,000 from early position and Seed countered with a reraise to 103,000. Arpa made the call, but folded to Huck's continuation bet on the {6-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop that would've put Arpa all in.

One hand later, Seed opened with a 29,000 raise and Arpa moved all in for his last 49,000. Seed made the call holding {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, which bested Arpa's {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} after the board ran out {3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}.

Seed piled up right around 560,000 in chips after the dust settled.
