Matthew Lynn - 8th Place

Keven Stammen opened with a raise to 61,000 on the button, and Bahador Ahmadi called from the small blind. Then Matthew Lynn reraised all in from the big blind for 286,000 more. Stammen folded, and Ahmadi thought about it for thirty seconds or so before making the call.

Ahmadi {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

Lynn

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

The flop came {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

, and Ahmadi took the lead. The turn was the {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

, so Lynn needed an ace or ten to survive. But the river was the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

, and Lynn was eliminated in 8th.

Ahmadi now has the chip lead with 2.2 million.
