Hand #33 – Jeff Courtney Eliminated in 8th Place ($84,546)

Jeff Courtney - 8th Place
Jeff Courtney - 8th Place
The button is with Jeff Courtney in Seat 7. The action folded to the aggressive Farzad Rouhani who raised it up to 105,000. From the button, Jeff Courtney came over the top for all of his chips as the blinds stepped out of the way. It was an additional 475,000 for Rouhani to make the call, as he stood up once again to cut down his chips and consider the decision. After some friendly table banter he said “Let’s go!” and made the call.

Rouhani: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Courtney: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and Rouhani spiked a pair of queens to storm to the chip lead and eliminate Courtney in 8th place for $84,546.
