Clark Eliminated by Silber

Tony Clark - Eliminated.
Tony Clark - Eliminated.
Tony Clark entered Day 5 somewhat short. He leaves it after just ten minutes, completely busto.

Alexander Kostritsyn opened the pot with a raise to 25,000. Tony Clark, in middle position, reraised for his whole stack, a total of 391,000. Action folded to to Reagan Silber in the small blind, who called. Kostritsyn was not interested in pursuing the matter further and folded. With him out of the way, the players opened their hands:

Clark: {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds}
Silber: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}

Clark found himself on the wrong end of a pair versus pair situation. He couldn't improve when the board ran out {2-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {10-Spades} {6-Diamonds}. He is out of the tournament. Silber crested the 1,000,000-chip mark with that elimination.
