Thorsten Schaefer Eliminated in 8th Place ($100,230)

Thorsten Schaefer - 8th Place
Thorsten Schaefer - 8th Place
There was already about 190,000 in the middle following a flop of {3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}. Faraz Jaka checked, and Thorsten Schaefer checked behind. The turn was the {4-Clubs}. This time Jaka bet 175,000, and Schaefer thought a while before making the call.

The river was the {Q-Spades}. Jaka made another roughly pot-sized bet, and Schaefer announced he was all in. Jaka instantly called, showing {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the nut flush. Schaefer turned over {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}, and shook hands with everyone as he left in 8th place.

They are now redrawing for the final seven-handed table, after which they'll be taking a short break.
