Robert Gullickson Eliminated in 11th Place ($4,865)

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

The action folded around to Robert Gullickson in the small blind who min-raised to 16,000. Chip leader Jason Baker made the call from the big blind and they saw a flop of {8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Gullickson opened the betting by announcing that he was all in for 136,000 and Baker made the call flipping over {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} for top set. Gullickson meekly flipped over {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}.

When the {6-Diamonds} turned, Gullickson picked up outs in the form of any remaining 7, but his hopes were dashed when the {A-Clubs} fell on the river. This hand put Baker around 700,000.

The remaining ten players have combined to one table and when the next player is eliminated, the WSOP's first official final table will be set.
