Jameson Painter Eliminated in 7th Place ($24,198)

Jameson Painter - 7th place

After losing some chips on that Truijers elimination hand, Jameson "Pumpkin" Painter raised preflop again and this time Terrence Chan called; Painter gave the hand up to a flop bet from Chan. It was only a small pot, relatively speaking, but with the limits getting really big now, it constituted a significant hit for Painter.

So with only 80,000 or 85,000 left to his name, Painter raised for the third hand in a row, and this time Matt Matros called in the big blind. They saw a flop.

Flop: {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Matros bet out, Painter raised, they agreed to get the whole lot in and they flipped the cards.

Painter: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Matros: had spiked with {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

"I fold a queen," announced Georgios Kapalas, which probably didn't make Painter feel any better.

Turn: {3-Spades}

River: {5-Clubs}

Matros was smashing pumpkins in the Amazon Room and Painter duly exited, taking his sizable but refreshingly well-behaved, bright orange rail with him.
