Nenad Medic Eliminated in 9th Place ($27,680)

Nenad Medic - 9th Place
Nenad Medic - 9th Place
Nenad Medic came into the day in 10th chip position, the bottom of the barrel. He outlasted Layne Flack but will run no further. After Medic opened for 55,000, the newly resurgent Uri Keidar re-popped it to 210,000, clearing out everyone else. Medic seemed stuck, and could be seen counting the chips up for grabs to decide if it were possible for him to fold his hand. In the end he decided it was not, and called all in for less than the 210,000.

Medic: {A-Hearts} {7-Spades}
Keidar: {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}

Keidar was in a dominating lead and took a stranglehold on the pot with a {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {5-Hearts} by making a pair of kings. Medic was left with only a few runner-runner draws. The {Q-Hearts} on the turn gave him half of one of those draws; any heart on the river would give Medic the nut flush. The river was red, but it was the {2-Diamonds}, bouncing Medic to the rail in 9th place.
