Geoffrey Herzog Eliminated

Geoffrey Herzog got the rest of his chips all in preflop against Mark Ketteringham, his {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} dominating Ketteringham's {K-Clubs} {6-Clubs}.

The flop, though came down {Q-Spades} {10-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}, pairing Ketteringham's six. The turn was the {Q-Hearts} and the river was the {6-Hearts} making him sixes full and eliminating Herzog.

"This is why I make a living at this-- because of plays like that," said Herzog as he hit the rail in 92nd place.

"Please don't break this table for a couple of hours," begged Phil Hellmuth, who was not involved in the hand, but voiced his opinion nonetheless.
