Hold'em

With the action folded around to the button, Daniel Makowsky potted it up to 140,000. In the big blind, Najib Bennani reraised the pot, plenty enough to cover his opponent. Makowsky made the call, putting his tournament life in jeopardy.

Showdown
Makowsky: {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs}
Bennani: {8-Clubs} {8-Spades}

The board was a big airball for Makowsky, as it ran down {K-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}. Failing to pair up and win the race, our start-of-day chip leader has been relegated to the rail in 5th place. He'll take home more than $50,000 for his work over the last three days.
