The Champ has Fallen

Former Main Event winner Robert Varkonyi has just been eliminated by Donald Georgeme. Georgeme raised to 2,200 before Varkonyi moved all in for 23,000 with {10-Clubs} {10-Spades}. Georgeme made the call with {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}.

The board came {2-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. The ace on the turn was enough to send Varkoni to the rail.
